“Education exacerbates inequality”. How is this woman teaching anyone anywhere, never mind at Cambridge?

It’s lucky that Elizabeth being a girl was a matter of complete indifference to her father, had no adverse consequences for her mother, and was treated with total equanimity by her subjects otherwise this might seem absurd.

@JLewisStempel If only the nincompoops in the UK Government had not banned this 😬

At last an AI tool I can get behind

I suddenly see why it was actually a matter of national importance that Lord Alli bought his clothes for him.

@LNER @networkrail Thank you for trying. There’s a queue of 16 people trying to get water from the cafe bar - if it would be possible to distribute water to passengers that would help?

[Beth McNally @GroveSprightly]

@LNER stuck on a train outside of Doncaster, the aircon seems to have failed and the carriages are getting hotter and hotter. We’re going to be over an hour late, and so far no meaningful update. What are you doing about this?

@MichaelTG09 #goals :-) ours are going in this winter!

@LizKershawDJ Hey @charlottecgill just wondered if you have any insights from your research on who’s funding the charity “Global Action Plan”?
If there isn’t a conflict of interest behind this nonsense I’ll eat my hat.

Young people want serious religion. The lack of seriousness is why young people leave or dismiss Anglicanism. I think the enormity of the backlash against @CburyCathedral is because this graffiti epitomises the feeling that those leading the church lack firm faith. Lack pious awe, and respect for the sacred. Young people visit our cathedrals and find self-indulgent egos rather than Christ. The ‘Quiet Revival’ is a rebellion against this.

The Special Relationship is going to be torn apart due to fundamental disagreements on *checks notes* the Ecclesiastical Exemption from Listed Building Control.

I'm HERE for it.

I believe this is what the kids call cringe.

[Jem Bloomfield @jembloomfield]

I'm afraid this does rather suggest a distant crit-theory view of "urban transgression" and "aesthetic norm rejection" whilst ignoring the actual working-class people who find graffiti an ugly depressing menace and who look to the Church for beauty and meaning.

@TracyEdwardsMBE I signed it, and the counter went *down* by one. Which is quite odd.

This warrants the death penalty

@AHomelyHouse Fabulous - thank you!

[Beth McNally @GroveSprightly]

@AHomelyHouse Outbuilding goals!

@Docstockk That maybe the most unpleasant pun I’ve ever heard. Bookend the week and also bookend the weak (by killing as many as possible at the start and end of their lives). Loathesome man.

@PaulBrandITV Is this a parody account?
