Yes. We tend to reject strict schools.

That’s what the people in charge think. And that’s what too many in the public think.

Our schools are doomed if we are to imagine heads have to fight the entire world to be able to run a decent school.

🚨 France’s Interior Minister reported 402 arrests, including 156 minors, tied to 14,540 wildfire outbreaks that burned 120,000 hectares since the start of the 2026 fire season…

Thirty Christians were just buried in Nigeria. Eleven of the victims were children.

They were all massacred by Islamic terrorists in the last few days.

And nobody is talking about it.

Ask yourself this: what is @bbcnews for - if it is not to tell you the news?

[Darren Grimes @darrengrimes]

Nobody alive in Britain today owned a slave.

Every village church in Britain today has a leaking roof.

Guess which one the Church of England is spending £100 million on.

And where’s the King on all of this?

This year’s Palace report says he’s busy protecting “the space for Faith within the multi-faith nation.”

Isabella, who seems like a very nice and well meaning person, is nevertheless a man. He feels unsafe among men in a men's toilet. Yet he expects women to be happy to accept men walking into women's toilets just because they claim they think they're trans. What about OUR safety and dignity?Sorry, Isabella, but it's not OUR job to accommodate YOU.

Amazing how many media companies are happy to keep their heads in the sand

With green subsidies now accounting for three quarters of the price of electricity, the cost of Net Zero to the public is much higher than politicians are willing to admit, say Professor Gordon Hughes and Dr Lee Moroney.

It now turns out that the Defence Secretary, Wes Streeting, received thousands of pounds worth of donations linked to a notorious crypto fraudster, Sam Bankman-Fried.

Will Sky News be harassing his relatives?

Will the BBC go to his constituency to speak to locals?

I doubt it.

Never forget what Starmer said.
Police in riot gear raided my home. They arrived with a key and a saw at the ready. My 16-year-old son was handcuffed while I was detained in a room as officers searched the entire property from top to bottom. He was arrested solely for being present at the protest.
In the same town, my 12-year-old daughter was groomed, raped, beaten and died. Despite an admission of guilt, the perpetrator was only requested to attend a voluntary interview.
This is two-tier policing in practice.

Since we can return migrants to France after their boat caught on fire. We can return migrants to France even when they’re not on fire.

It can be done.

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

Am I missing something here? Is this perhaps a Brass Eye sketch? All I can see is a school that imposes strict discipline on its pupils to aid their development and learning. And their exam results suggest it is working. Good for the school. We need more of it.

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

Just answer a simple question. Which Stephen Flynn, who is after your job, has refused to answer: are you in favour of issuing new licences to drill for oil and gas in the North Sea? If not, save us your fake tears about BP.

[Paul Embery @PaulEmbery]

Last Wednesday, several years after the Channel migrant crisis began, 752 people arrived into Britain by small boat - a record number for the year. Last night it was announced that the killers of a police officer will walk free prematurely because prison capacity has dried up. Two absolutely glaring examples of calamitous state failure. We cannot continue like this.

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

It's puzzling how little this interests the women in the Labour party

At a time when we need women more than ever to
establish a proper balance in our society

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

I can understand that some are genuine refugees.

What I can't understand is why there are no old people, no women, and no children...among them

Why are they all fit young men ?

Are no old people, women or children genuine refugees?

[Katie Lam @Katie_Lam_MP]

Across England, about 1,000 historic churches are in need of repair.

The Church of England is planning to spend £100 million on slavery reparations.

Let's scrap this divisive nonsense, and spend the money on preserving our national heritage instead.

[Daniel Hannan @DanielJHannan]

Her argument collapses on contact. Desperate to find SOMETHING to apologise for despite its role in the forefront of the abolitionist movement, the Church of England discovered that for part of the eighteenth century, a sum set aside for poor clergymen and known as Queen Anne’s Bounty had been invested in the South Sea Company, which was involved in shipping enslaved people.
The investment was made by accountants acting on behalf of the church, almost certainly without instruction. Its vicars were, at the time, demanding abolition from the pulpit; its bishops were voting for it in the Lords; its congregants were raising money for anti-slavery campaigns; its missionaries were touring Africa trying to persuade local chiefs to manumit their slaves.
None of that matters, though, because, across the period when the shares were held, they lost money. The Church of England’s profit from the South Sea Company? Zero.

[Allison Pearson @AllisonPearson]

Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbullah just said she doesn’t accept green levies are making our energy bills more expensive.

Sorry, that is a lie which Amol Rajan should have picked up.

British people have the second highest energy bills in the world because we subsidise green renewables to the tune of billions of pounds.

[Nick Timothy MP @NJ_Timothy]

The Church of England is sending £100 million overseas for slavery “reparations”.

Meanwhile our parish churches - our national inheritance - are crumbling.

This is gesture politics - and it’s theologically nonsensical.

My letter to the Archbishop.

[Simon Schama @simon_schama]

I am so deeply sorry.....
