“All the useless stuff you learn at school teaches you how to think”

If it were so, Italy, where ~45% of the population studies a dead language (Latin) for 3h a week for 5 years should be an intellectual powerhouse!

Let’s do a quick thought experiment in three steps.
1) Think about a school that does not teach you how to think
2) Think about a school that DOES teach you how to think.
3) Is the current system closer to (1) or to (2)?

I’m not saying that everything we learn should be about work. But I’m saying that if the point of some school hours is to teach how to think, they should be spent very differently.

Really sorry to hear this news. @Rob_Kimbell was a force for good in regard to reporting the positives of the U.K. economy.

[Gully Foyle #UKTrade @TerraOrBust]

In tribute to @Rob_Kimbell, who sadly passed away after a short illness yesterday.

Many of you will know that Rob posted every weekday lots of good news about UK businesses and the UK economy.

So for the next hour I will do the same.

Rest in Peace Rob.

A boozy crazy golf experience is to open in Bury St Edmunds in a first of its kind venture for the town.

The UK's recession alarm is flashing red - and the Bank of England's next move, in early August, is crucial.

Monetary policy works with "long and variable lags" - and we've already had thirteen rates rises in eighteen months.

Having been slow to recognise looming inflation, and initially too cautious, the Bank is now over-compensating - causing unnecessary economic damage in a bid to regain its shattered credibility.

Inflation will soon fall sharply - "broad money" is contracting, the producer price index (a key leading indicator of headline inflation) has collapsed in recent months and the economy has stalled.

That's why raising rates even more in August and September would be counterproductive.

Further rate hikes would compound the Bank's earlier errors, driving the UK into a deep and otherwise avoidable recession, causing yet more misery for millions of households and firms.

Looks like her advisers have tried to throw her under the bus - an electric one of course!

Unfortunately, the accountancy and tax professions are not regulated. So anyone can call themselves an accountant. Taxpayers should always use a qualified Chartered Accountant who is accountable to their professional body for ethical and technical standards.

Further to my communication to HMRC in March and April, I have repeated my demand they meet with me and other MPs who are representing constituents with concerns about the service provided by Apostle Accounting and the wider duty of care provided by HMRC.

[Keith Senior @keithfsenior]

Yes, @HMRCgovuk does have a wider duty of care to deal with taxpayers fairly in context. HMRC have to protect the public purse and they are doing that. They just now need to show some compassion about how the repayments are organised. Taxpayers were responsible for claims made.

A great choice for #OneBigThankyou @BBCTheOneShow yesterday. Sam & Libby’s great idea was a fantastic one. It was an obvious choice for @JacobsAllenTax to support right at the start. Truly well deserved Sam & Libby!

[BBC The One Show @BBCTheOneShow]

We surprised our two #OneBigThankyou recipients today with the help of @V_pendleton! 💙

The incredible Sam and Libby have been helping the community of Bury St Edmonds with their ingenious use of pedal power 🚴‍♀️

Thanks for all you do! 🥰

Did you really mean that last comment @VictoriaCoren !

[Victoria Coren Mitchell @VictoriaCoren]

Damn, I’ve just seen a piece in the Daily Mail saying Betfair quoted me at 7/2, you’d think I’d have a look before tweeting wouldn’t you? #amateur But I am happy to be able to advise any interested parties that I’m a very good lay.

But what a star you were @clickboss1943. Rishi just didn’t know where to start with your question and still didn’t manage it!

Times change. As a child I loved it that "school master" was an anagram of "the classroom" - but I don't think we have school masters any more. And as for "nine thumps" being an anagram of "punishment"...
Still there's always MONDAY... my favourite word to anagrammatise (sp??)
