@DowningAndy @kennygfrederick Both mistaken-Michael done far more encourage love of reading&writing by children than one size fits all synthetic phonics pushed by Gove&DfE. Michael has very big ‘cult’ following strongly opposed to Gove & his destruction of our education system-Kenny-admired yr work@GGreen

ICE DEPORTEES TO #JAMAICA - no support from Jamaican government- small charities like FURI try to assist deportees many of whom left JA as children-phone calls at airport, employment advice @Nigelj08223326 https://t.co/LubS8XqKqX

@The93Dr Maybe he‘s one of ‘Father’ Calvin Robinson’s disciples

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@The93Dr Lived in Birmingham 3 years ago, near Small Heath, majority Muslim, friendly helpful neighbors, no drunks, no loud parties, low crime- kids polite, focused on schoolwork, sorry we had to leave.

@carolecadwalla @Jgs_x The Party in shape of #Gove has taken over Orwell Prize-irony meter reading is way off the scale-“War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength”

ARE YOU #ENGLISH Check out Nick Cohen’s excellent Substack blog- he ends with quote from late great #RaymondWilliams-when aristo guest at Cambridge declared”my family came over with the Conqueror” Williams-“oh really and how are you enjoying your visit?” https://t.co/aMmYIHZoUQ

@LodricAtkinson It was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics that supported liberation struggles across the world-quite a different entity from corrupt, repressive modern Russia-as former member of Communist Party, I know what I’m talking about-time for you to re-read Communist Manifesto!

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@LodricAtkinson Your concern for Ukraine sufferers commendable but if they are defeated who will be next. Europe already in phony war with Putin gang. No help from Trump. Brown-nosing authoritarians like Putin/Trump doesn’t work long term. JLP should be careful https://t.co/h0yJ2LMgA1

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@LodricAtkinson How about the Putin critics who commit ‘suicide’ by jumping out of windows or die from poisoning or have their planes blown up - haven’t heard of these events in Ukraine

@ArchRose90 WEALTH DESTROYER- #Ratcliffe closed Grangemouth refinery, took Welsh government £5m grant then decided to produce Grenadier véhicle in France instead of Bridgend-Britain on slide because of phoney patriots like him not immigrants

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@Nigelj08223326 Maybe we should check out job opportunities there

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@DanielJMath1 Ratcliffe’s Grenadier car originally going to be made in Bridgend- got £5m grant from Welsh government but chose disused Smart factory, France instead. Closed Grangemouth. Phoney patriots like Ratcliffe, Lowe destroying Brit economy not immigrants

GUYANA FASTEST GROWING ECONOMY IN THE WORLD Economic growth up 33% in last year, opulent weddings, Lamborghinis - but elites getting most of the benefits. @Nigelj08223326 https://t.co/S5y2vsSOdO

TRINIDAD PHONE-TAPPING SCANDAL @Nigelj08223326 In June, Att.Gen. Jeremie called Syrian-Lebanese community “a gang”-Star Sagba(69) made angry T/C ->arrested +niece, husband-all prominent S-Lfolk- held for2 months, no charge-is Trump virus spreading?https://t.co/iKJDtxSc1G

@stevedawson17 We will all have nightmares thinking of Farage as pm not just lefties

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@benonwine Please do your research- esp. Eric Williams classic ‘Capitalism and Slavery’ Britain abolished slavery primarily because it was no longer profitable not moral epiphany-it already provided funds for Industrial Revolution-that’s how capitalism works @Miss_Snuffy

“THIS MASTERPIECE IS THE NOVEL OF THE DECADE, IF NOT THE CENTURY” says Dwight Garner in his NYT review of #Jamaica born writer Marlon James. It focuses on the gay experience and murderous homophobia in JA and elsewhere during the 1980s &90s https://t.co/h3WeJ4mccM

[David Boyle @Hackney50David]

@Nigel_Farage Maybe same should apply to folk with ‘foreign’ names- “Farage is a surname, believed to be of French Huguenot origin, likely signifying forage. It has also been used as an anglicised form of the Arabic surname Faraj” ( Wikipedia)
