There is now no Minister or Under Secretary in DfE with a sole focus on children's services and the early years. It isn't in either of the Junior Minister's briefs. A sad sign of the lack of value placed on these vital services.

@clairezagorski Oh oh oh ... just TOO TOO FUNNY. I can't stop watching it either. Shaking with laughter. Thank you!

“My passion for accuracy may strike you as oldmaidish –but since we do float on an unknown sea I think we should examine the other floating things that come our way very carefully; who knows what might depend on it? So I’m enclosing a clipping about racoons.” – Elizabeth Bishop

It is astonishing & very, very sad that some people remain incapable of seeing this magnificent monologue as a clear expression of compassion & concern for *everybody*. Humanity can’t be partisan. Maybe people need more help understanding that. Seminal broadcasting by @maitlis.
