Today, the Conservatives tried to use Parliamentary time to protect private schools’ tax breaks.
Labour is taking the necessary decisions to invest in our state schools after 14 years of Tory neglect 👇
@Worldsmith1680@John_atBTC Thanks, Josh. @Worldsmith1680
I'll listen. Not a fan of Robert/Steph. Heard a few - still lookinh for commentators questioning the govt's apparent rejection of classical/Keynesian principles.
Phillipson not impressed me yet.
Reeves' party line.

I spent the morning observing a very thorough, detailed, and respectful democratic debate at the @UCU special FE Sector Conference (sFESC).
Delegates will now vote on next steps following the impressive results of the consultative #RespectFE ballot.

Let's stop talking about higher tax being bad for the taxpayer.
If you want cheaper childcare, better health services or further education, then you DON'T want to rely on handouts and charity.
We need everyone to pay higher taxes and the rich need to pay the most.

It seems everyone is taken in by the idea of lower taxes and more spending power.
What has happened to free early years education, social care and child care?
Do we all want to pay for everything ourselves?

Owen Jones is seriously encouraging his 1 million followers to harass a politician in the street, maybe outside his home, less than a year after David Amess was stabbed. Has he lost his mind?
Chief Secretary to the treasury Simon Clarke, who along with other MP’s has just had a £2,200 year a pay rise, is on @BBCBreakfast explaining why it would be reckless to give public sector workers, who got the country through the pandemic, a proper pay rise. Bollocks to that
