@MrsPTeach @Poundland @scrubdaddy_uk Buy stuff called ‘sticky stuff remover’ from hard ware stores

@ParentHub_UK 🤣😁

Not the place to practise the difference between noun and verb form of practice / practise though. 😬

“£200,000 was spent on legal fees for a case that didn’t need to happen because you could have simply said “yes, we were in breach”.

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

Still cannot believe a harried junior doctor can be convicted of manslaughter for making mistakes (Hadiza Bawa-Garba) yet a cabinet minister can be found guilty by the High Court of breaking procurement law (Matt Hancock) & not be sacked, resign nor even apologise.

[Jason Reid @JasonReidx]

Meghan and Harry is the top headline on the BBC news at ten, followed by the Duke Of Edinburgh, the same day that it was revealed Matt Hancock acted unlawfully over Covid contracts.

This country is not well at all.

[Pie Corbett @PieCorbett]

Govt should vaccinate all school staff (teachers, cleaners, etc). When children return, covid will once again start spreading - infecting staff and moving back into the community. At least, protect those who have to be on the front line.

@Nazmameah1 @chrisdysonHT I expect he will say that where levels of infections and deaths are lower they should fully open schools so that they can catch up with the higher mortality rates in worse affected areas.

@Teacherglitter Just take it a week or a day at a time. Keep your eye on the next cuppa or instalment of Netflix.... and as one of our children wrote in a letter to our local hospital, “I know it’s hard but when it’s all over you will look back and be so proud of yourself”.

[Adam Bienkov @AdamBienkov]

Gavin Williamson tells MPs he threatened to sue Greenwich Council for closing schools early because “at that stage none of us were aware of the new variant.”

In fact the Health Secretary had already told MPs about the new variant before he sent out his legal threat.

@Ofstednews @ProfDanielMuijs Er... is that an incorrect apostrophe use in the first slide? Just saying. 😀

[Claudia Webbe @ClaudiaWebbe]

Coronavirus rates among teachers are 333% above the average.

How dare Hancock say today there was “no evidence” teachers were more at risk

[Prof Colin Talbot @colinrtalbot]

I know closing schools is problematic.

But, simple point. If we want to we can compensate for educational gaps if we want to. These kids have their whole lives before them.

What we can't do is bring their grandparents, teachers, or in some cases parents, back to life.

@larrainesharri3 @PieCorbett @Oh_Thereslovely Ask if people want shorter lunch so day can end early. Then run over at end of the day.

[Jonathan Freedland @Freedland]

A senior NHS consultant texts:

“Why not vaccinate all teachers in time for return to school on 18 jan? A box of Astra Zeneca vaccine to every school. It would only take days but what a great start to the year to know that all teachers were safe.”

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

We entered this pandemic with:

🔹 40k too few nurses

🔹 10k too few doctors

🔹 17k too few beds

🔹 A mere 4000 ICU beds

The political choice to defund the NHS since 2010 is being paid in human lives 😔

Dear London journalists,
Please go to London hospitals and report what is happening and why.

[Deborah Meaden 🇺🇦 @DeborahMeaden]

Why would you do that?
