@TUIUK my 72 year old mum & stepdad had an awful holiday. Tui’s complaints team acknowledged the hotel ‘Suneo La Conchiglia’ was not ready-it’s an insult to offer £125 compensation ‘that’s the rules.’ No way to appeal, even though the complaint was accepted by TUI!

Labour crush the Tories - worst result since 1832. All that lying, dishonest behaviour, greed and staggering incompetence- what a shockingly poor government. I’m hoping to see the back of some the architects of destruction.

How about they focus on this National Service?

Recently I talked to a young person who told me about starting secondary school. We were lined up, she said, and our uniform was inspected. I had never been in trouble at primary school but they said my shoes were wrong. There was a coloured stitch around the heel.

She got a warning that first day, and told that the next day the same shoes would mean a short detention. There was no time or money to buy new shoes before the next day so back she went with the same shoes and duly got a 30 min detention. She tried to explain but was told there were no excuses.

Next day it was the same. Still no time or money to buy new shoes so she wore her black trainers and hoped they wouldn't notice. They did. Also not allowed. She got angry when given another detention - it’s unfair! -  and she told the teacher so loudly and tearfully.

This was disrespectful behaviour and so her sanction was increased.  More behaviour points and she’s heading for Reset.  She still can’t get new shoes.

What exactly are those sanctions meant to be correcting? Where is the ‘misbehaviour’ which will be changed by ‘consequences’? Was it buying those shoes in the first place - not really her mistake, since she’s 11? Or was it not having money to buy new ones? Or having parents who work hours which means they can’t shop during the week? Or not quietly accepting the sanctions? 

What is she meant to be learning from the experience?

I can tell you what she did learn because she told me. She learnt that she hates getting detentions and that she doesn't think the teachers like her. She learnt that school cares more about the threading on her shoes than about her education and learning.  She started telling her parents she won't go. That’s seen as more ‘behaviour’ and her parents are told to put sanctions in place at home. Pretty soon she's very unhappy - but that still doesn't change the threads on her shoes.

That’s the problem when we make sweeping statements about ‘behaviour’ which fail to ask questions about what is going on. What we see as ‘misbehaviour’ is dependent on the context. If by 'behaviour' we really mean 'compliance' then we should call it that. Learning to comply isn't the same as learning to behave.

That's because behaviour is about much more than compliance. Behaviour is the result of an interaction between the person and their environment. If we ignore the role of the environment, we can make things worse.

I have never known such love and support in my life than I’m getting this morning (England World Cup goals aside, possibly). I want to thank each and every one of you. It means a lot. I’ll continue to try and speak up for those poor souls that have no voice. Cheers all. 👊🏻

Tory politicians living it up in designer clothes at the Savoy whilst people in Britain die from hypothermia in their homes and can’t even source vegetables let alone afford the gas to cook them. There are no words for the rage I feel when I see this. I despise the scumbags.

This is my son Charlie, he's 15. It's important that everyone understands he isn't a ref, he's a child who chooses to ref. If he refs your game, please treat him how you would want your child to be treated. I'm so proud of him. Charlie's Mum ❤️

Wholesale gas is FIVE times cheaper today than it was in August.

Wholesale gas is 30% cheaper today than before Putin invaded Ukraine.

In 16 days Ofgem announce the next energy bill price.

Ofgem must cut energy bills now.

If you get something wrong…own it and say you’ll be better next time.

You’ll be amazed how forgiving people can be when you do that.

Sajid Javid - who got £1,500 per hour from a second job with a US investment bank - is calling for people to have to pay to visit their GP and A+E.

The Tories want to use this crisis to push through the privatisation of our NHS.

We have the fight of our lives on to stop them.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

Does ANYONE think this is a coincidence?

We are now constantly discussing whether a free* NHS is financially sustainable, after 3 years of the Tories literally stealing billions from the NHS budget via dodgy contracts.

WEIRD, HUH! 🤯

[Enough is Enough @eiecampaign]

Why are ambulance workers on strike today?

📉 Real pay down £6,000 since 2010

😞 53% struggling to cope with demands of their jobs

🏥 Nightly queues at A&Es putting patients at risk

🚑 1 in 3 witnessed patient's death was linked to a delay

RT if you're behind them 👊

@wendysuk visited your Camden branch today, hugely disappointing. No toilets for my 8 year old to use, rude, unhelpful staff, all the tables were dirty and bins overflowing. #wontbegoingback
