Don't let them tell you we can't afford to tackle the social emergency we face.

A one-off 10% tax on wealth above £10m could raise £86 BILLION.

There's huge wealth in our society. It's just in the wrong hands.

It's time for a Wealth Tax on the super-rich.

Hi Paul, thank you very much for sharing today your thread about Ofsted. It chimes with arguments outlined in a paper, as yet unpublished, about Ofsted's failure to observe equalities legislation. Please DM me if you would like to know more.

Outstanding piece by Fraser Nelson.

"Columnists such as Fiyaz Mughal, Nick Timothy and Kenan Malik are influential people. With influence comes responsibility. They should display intellectual integrity, and at the very least ask themselves whether they got it wrong."

On the centenary of the birth of Paulo Freire, let's celebrate one of the most important books ever written on education - one that I continue to read again and again - and one that every student and educator should read,

@WanderingPsych I recommend Jackie Kay's poem 'Darling'. You can probably find it through a search engine. If not DM me at [email protected] and I will send it to you as an email attachment

Not certain why the House of Commons Committee on #HumanRights posted its "Black People, Racism & Human Rights" report at 2am. Not, presumably because there's anything to bury? #Austerity, #StopAndSearch etc etc? We @RunnymedeTrust made submissions, so will review carefully #BLM
