Employment lawyer. Father of a research scientist and a primary teacher. How cool is that? School governor. Education is the key to this world and all others.

Once again, dangerous rhetoric.

'No option'. Seriously?

[James Cleverly🇬🇧 @JamesCleverly]

Illegal migration is rising across Europe.

But it’s fallen by a third in the UK.

We’re not going to stop until the boats are stopped.

No option is off the table.

Hunt: "Anyone choosing to coast on the hard work of taxpayers will lose their benefits."

Same old, same old. Same pain and misery for those who are already struggling.

Same intellectually bankrupt nonsense.

We have been here before.

It is not my fault and I had nothing to do with it.
She had control and influence and yet did nothing.
This does not carry the ring of truth.

[Suella Braverman @SuellaBraverman]

Today’s Supreme Court judgment is no surprise. It was predicted by a number of people close to the process. Given the current state of the law, there is no reason to criticise the judges. Instead, the government must introduce emergency legislation. 1/3

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

We should listen to this guy, why?
Certainly not because of his past track record.

[David Cameron @David_Cameron]

Securing our borders is a fundamental duty of government. We must stop the boats and tackle illegal migration.

This is a priority for the British people. That is why we must do whatever is needed.

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

If anyone wonders why we need the ECHR, just listen to the rhetoric of Braverman, Anderson and even Sunak. The authoritarian Right.

After all the Eastern strangeness, my Grandfather was sent to France, like so many of Kitchener's new army. Just in time to be moved to the Somme front.
This was the day job. He was a Driver. The guy on the horse. #CountyPalatine #Pals #Citizensoldier

Further Remembrance.

Imagine being a 22 year old miner from East Lancashire who at Xmas 1915, found himself here.

They gave him one of these to explore Northern France #Citizensoldier

Respect to all those who did their duty.

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

This is the week of Remembrance.

I remember my father who at 21 took his first journey to France with his mates in a 'ferry' that looked like this #citizensoldier

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

So this is the solution. Prison Hulks.

[rob kelsall @rob_kelsall]

A national disgrace.

We are better than this. 👇

Err..sod off Grant?

[Rt Hon Sir Grant Shapps @grantshapps]

I’m about to meet with the supermarket bosses who have been ripping off motorists at the pump.

I’ll demand they end any overcharging immediately and challenge them to hand over their pricing data.

Lets see what they have to say…

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

Kept quiet about this,didn't he?

[Bob Hudson @Bob__Hudson]

This is shocking. There used to be many routes into study for those who didn’t make the cut first time - cheap FE evening classes, extra-mural university departments, low cost Open University modules. What is *wrong* with these people?

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

Not convinced that pink Tories are what most people looking for alternatives have in mind.

Re-prioritisation can achieve meaningful results, without breaking the bank.

A re-think required.

So sad and so unnecessary. The campaign to change his mind starts today! https://t.co/YTxYv4jhZs

Reading through sports news. It would seem that #ForestGreenRovers are not as progressive as they would have us believe.

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

@nekobabaa @MichaelRosenYes A classic example of senior management's love affair with IT as the way to control costs and manage their services.

Brainwashed adoration. No criticism of the system is permissible. Algorithms are never wrong.

But they are fallible. But that will never be accepted.

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

@SteveBarclay No they did not and clearly a significant proportion remain unhappy.

Imposing a pay rise could well backfire.

Teachers not impressed by such a strategy. So why not others?

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

@Haggis_UK @marcusbrig This is exactly why this man is not a fit and proper person to be a government minister.

If this was the only thing....

[Stephen Gallagher @StephenG41HR]

@smithsmm EYFS and Year 1 is learning in the raw. Everything is a learning experience. Knowing that and using that to best advantage is a great skill.

Such teachers do wonderful work. I am lucky to watch them do it.

Comments such as this, are the testament of the ignorant.

@toadmeister Flat Earth, anyone?
