Gareth, I want to thank you - not as the President of the @FA, but as an @England fan.
Thank you for creating a team that stands shoulder to shoulder with the world’s finest in 2024. Thank you for showing humility, compassion, and true leadership under the most intense pressure and scrutiny.
And thank you for being an all-round class act. You should be incredibly proud of what you’ve achieved. W.
Permit me an observation on the controversy surrounding @GaryLineker's view on immigration and asylum as expressed in his now notorious tweet. I worked in the BBC's Editorial Complaints Unit for around a decade, adjudicating on complaints that there had been breaches
@Se_Railway unbelievably terrible service on Hayes line recently. So bad, I have registered to claim money back moving forwards. Interesting way to drive customer registrations.
My blood is now at a rolling boil.
These weasel MPs with their piss-weak, cut-and-paste twitter affirmations. You’re an affront to the electorate, all of you.
@Micheleshopping@benmiskell@NEUYorksHumber@SheffieldHigh @GDST Yes - to her credit, my daughter has much the same view. However, she is also incredibly distressed to have lost 6 days of teaching before her GCSEs and feels let down by all parties involved in the dispute. Important that an MP getting involved in an issue talks to all affected
@DrRoundglasses @voice_wales @NEUCymru Well hopefully the mediation process [an alternative now happening] does reach an agreement that doenst cause further impact on the girls. Otherwise I think the effect on market dynamics for independent schools will be swift and damaging for all involved in the dispute
@DrRoundglasses @voice_wales @NEUCymru It really isnt fury - just extreme dissapointment in all parties - GDST, union, teachers who are unable to reach a compromise and allow a strike to happen. Because the impact will be on the Yr11/13 girls and I dont think that is acceptable collateral damage [or a good lesson]
@NEUnion bang on about 'solidarity'. What about showing solidarity with @GDST students and putting their best interests first. Unprecedented disruption for 2 years and a far-left union cause more harm to school communities by hijacking teaching and learning for political ends.
To the trustees of @gdst. One of your key roles is the ‘safety and welfare of pupils’. Take action as a trustee and do what you are supposed to. Pupils education and health is suffering. Get teachers back to school today. #gdst#gdststrike#gdstparents#charitycommission
