Y13 CONGRATULATIONS..."It's over and done with"!
Y12; will be interesting to compare this graph with results post 4th May 2024.

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y12...please read this...thanks @LGS_Politics

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Y12 - this is very useful for UK Constitution, Parties and Democracy topics. The first picture on the post below is especially useful for collective v individual rights.

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y12s and Y13...if you are listening; excellent e.g. is the role of the PM now Presidential?

Y12/13...take a look at this. Thanks @politics_tutor

[@essential_politics @politics_tutor]

One of my favourite adverts from the 1990's and the easiest way to explain why we need pressure groups and trade unions

Y12/Y13: example of democracy where all the voices are heard...well sort of. See this "new" party from...ahem...him https://t.co/cTseQIsJjX

Taking inspiration from @KKNTeachLearn, 100 questions (there or thereabouts!) for UK, US and Ideologies - Year 13 getting roundly stuck into these today!

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y12 and (if still on-board) Y13...who does she represent?

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Y12 - 👀 👀 👀
One for parties and democracy (representation) as well as power of the PM.

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y12 and, if you are still following, Y13...excellent evidence of change of electoral system and impact on voter choice, democracy and participation.

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Interesting piece here from @instituteforgov on change to FPTP - https://t.co/hPwatM22Mf

Y12: Please take note of this excellent resource.

Y12s: This is great summary...please digest!

[Simon Lemieux @SimonLemieuxpgs]

Excellent summary on British Constitution and protection of civil liberties. Consider compare and contrast with the USA too

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y12s: some nice analysis of last weeks local elections...thanks @politics_tutor

Y12 and Y13: excellent work Boris!

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Y12 - one for your essays on the impact of the Elections Act 2022! Useful for Elections, Rights (democracy topic), Constitution (reform) and parties (policy)

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y13: thanks @MrTuck2013. Nice example for my Y13 in your last few days here The Grange School. Conservatism, empiricism and pragmatism...it's all in there! Happy holidays!

[David Tuck @MrTuck2013]

Brilliant example of the rationalism v empiricism debate that we discuss in A level politics. Mrs Thatcher channelling Edmund Burke.

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Y12 - good example for parties (ideology, policy, etc), PM (power, circumstance, etc), Democracy (representation)

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y13; excellent example of FPTP (strong and stable) v PR (unstable!) - thanks @LGS_Politics

[Sarra Jenkins @LGS_Politics]

Y12 - it looks like Yousef might resign today. Either way, super example for Devolution (does it work/gone far enough?), Elections (AMS - coalitions), Parties (multi-party systems), Democracy/Constitution. Worth knowing the phrase 'Bute House Agreement'.

Y13: good example for power of committees v executive as the gov simply rejects recommendations!

[QMC Politics @qmcpolitics]

Government rejects Education select committee recommendation re Ofsted reports

[Politics | The Grange School @Politics_Grange]

Y13: excellent for use with voting behaviour; thanks @FraserNelson .

[David Tuck @MrTuck2013]

Great for elections questions A level students students

[Fraser Nelson @FraserNelson]

In 1983, the under-25s were most likely to vote for Thatcher.

Now, the youngest age group showing a Tory lead is the 65-75s.
