Just in case anyone fancies reading about how my family's life took a slight detour 4 weeks ago. Here's a link: https://t.co/YRLxFphESU

How about some essential balance ? Just like Gary this bloke is sometimes employed by the BBC for his respected expertise . He too presents his views publicly . Just wondering if anyone in the government wants to retrospectively kick off about these tweets ? Nah, don’t suppose so
He can comment on human rights in Qatar whilst presenting the BBC’s coverage of the World Cup but he can’t comment on the state of his OWN country’s government for himself.
How does that balance up, then? https://t.co/BhovYHJqg9
If we have to have OFSTED, can they check staff retention over the prior 5 years in each school they visit? Can the govt intro a platform for anon exit interviews to be conducted every time a teacher leaves a school? Get that data on tap too for potential applicants.
If you went to a public school that charges annual fees higher than the maximum salary of a classroom teacher, maybe don't tell classroom teachers they earn too much
Sajid Javid says we need to pay £20 for a GP appointment and £66 to go to A&E as a way to solve the NHS funding crisis. He’s wrong because there are so many better options in my new report on funding the NHS. A thread…..
Fraud.
Lester Piggott - £2.8m - three years in the nick.
Boris Becker - £2.5m - 2½ years in the nick.
Nadhim Sadhawi - £3.7m - forced to pay up, retains government office and personal freedom.

Dear Grant Shapps,
We would like a minimum level of service in the NHS, on non strike days.
But you aren’t providing one.
Can we sue you?
Asking for a nation.

Today our strike action begins, and nursing staff need your solidarity.
Share this if you stand with those fighting for a safer future for nursing, patients, and the NHS.

Yay!! A result at #PMQs! Yesterday new PM vowed to fix his reckless predecessor's mistakes. So I asked if he'll start by reversing green light she gave to #fracking. And he gave a commitment to stick with manifesto moratorium. And if he backtracks, we’ll never let him forget!
She says she’s a fighter, not a quitter, but she’s about to get binned because she made everything shitter.
That’s all I’ve got. I’m hungover. Fuck off.
Just wanted to publicly thank @JamesCleverly for the outstanding work he did as Education Secretary. One can never underestimate the challenge of taking on the role right at the start of the summer holidays and leaving it at the start of term. Thanks, Jim!
Have two siblings had international sporting success on the same day before?
@lilkeets scored for England @Lionesses & her sister @TashaJonas became an unified boxing world champion.
Pretty epic day for their family and the nation. Not seen a decent sports report about them yet
Parents: fact is, not every kid who plays a sport wants to be the next Olympic champion. Most actually just want to play and have fun with their friends. Just be happy that your kid wants to play a sport, and aim to be a supportive and loving parent, not a pushy one.
If this was a shooting, an accident, or a foodborne illness, it would be all over the media. This is the headline *EVERY DAY* for pediatric cancer. Where is the coverage?
KS2 teachers & leaders!
❓Planning cross-curricular reading texts for the coming year?
Consider: Our Beautiful Game.
Set in WW1, it is based on the life of Lily Parr. It follows the story of a young girl who is keen to play football but isn’t allowed.
