2020 ‘science’ is seemingly repeating itself.
Please do, politely, F off with this ‘health advise’!
Not once do I ever hear -
EAT WELL - MOVE WELL - SLEEP WELL …protect the NHS.
I just hear - TAKE A DRUG to be a ‘good’ person.
Groupthink is a disease.
What @Miss_Snuffy and her colleagues do is inspirational, and yet she is repeatedly attacked. It's almost as if her critics care more about staying true to their ideology than giving the pupils they profess to care about the educational tools to succeed.
@KirstieMAllsopp And this is why as a nursery practitioner I’ve gone from referring 5% children to speech and language to now 30%! it goes up every year

All these things happened to me in London today
I paid nearly £30 for a train ticket to take me into London from a town just 30 miles away —on a Saturday
The first person I sat next to, I think from India, decided to have a FaceTime conversation with his friend on speakerphone so we all had to listen to it
The train was late by 40 minutes due to unexplained “signalling issues”. It was also filthy.
I paid nearly £8 for a pint
I offered a woman my seat on the tube without realising she was with a man who intervened and said “no man”. He was not from the UK. I think he took my gesture as an insult.
I was asked for money by homeless people 3 times in one day
I noticed several people who are paid to give information to taxpayers and tourists over the tannoy on the London Tube cannot speak English properly
A cabbie told me “London is dead most nights”, unless you are the global high net worth set or top 1%
Restaurants are visibly struggling and often hideously overpriced
I had dinner in a neighbourhood where the average rent is £3,663 per month while half of all local social housing has gone to people who were not even born in the UK
I was constantly aware I should not get my phone out on the street as 80,000 were stolen last year
I also read on the way back while checking that stat that there were 90,000 shoplifting offences in London last year, up 54%
My train back —delayed—was suddenly changed at the last minute with all passengers on board. They were told it would no longer be stopping at all stops.
I bought a tin of instant coffee on the way home and it had a security tag on it
Maybe I’m in a bad mood and perhaps it’s amusing to think how somebody of my political outlook is “triggered” but to me there is a deeper point here
London is over —it’s so over
It’s a city in visible decline with deteriorating standards and no real sense of identity or belonging
Going in and out of our capital city is a truly miserable experience
Infrastructure is falling apart, as is the social contract
I’ve been coming in and out of London since 1981
I simply cannot remember a time when it’s been this visibly dire and when so many things just do not work as they should
@brynll@ebiThomasJ If you worked with children of this age you would realise that pizza is not the problem, many kids sitting exams don’t even get offered a hot meal at night at home. Pizza is definately brain food for them no one can sit an exam on an empty tummy
A gentle reminder that many colleagues and pupils may not have had a lovely Christmas.
It might have been awful.
They may be very happy to be back where it feels safe, or where there's routine, or where there's company.
They may be dreading the question 'what did you do then' or
More private schools will shut their doors in 2025 - not because of failing standards, but because Labour’s tax raid punishes families for choosing independent education. Pure politics of envy.
