Firefighters continue battling wildfires in the Spokane area as officials urge residents to stay out of evacuation zones. Meteorologist Jordan Steele has the latest:
French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story.
It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war.
You’re only diminishing yourself with comments like this.
Andy Burnham is right, but we need to call this what it was: state-sanctioned vandalism.
The Conservatives systematically stripped sport, music, and drama from state school timetables, dismissing them as frivolous extras while preserving them for elite private schools. They treated working-class children as industrial units to be tested and processed, not young people who deserve a full, rich life.
The defense from the educational establishment was always economic efficiency. Teach the basics, pump up the league tables, ignore the rest. It was a narrow, philistine view of education that left an entire generation poorer for it.
Every child deserves access to sport, instruments, and the arts, not as a luxury, but as a birthright. If we only teach state school kids to read and count while private schools teach theirs to create, perform, and lead, we are simply baking inequality into the timetable.
The pressure is mounting.
Now is the time to act.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.

The Cancer has not humbled him I see..
