So our Local Authority is changing 30 hrs funding for 3+yr olds to only be available 51 weeks not 52 & somehow this is making the daily fee more £! Now it's 7 funded hrs per day instead of 7.25. They also charge extra per funded hour. Someone make it make sense! @PregnantScrewed
@MattP1Gallagher I'm not sure I will ever get over this news. I still can't believe it. Literally gobsmacked. I've always been a Mercedes and Hamilton fan because the 2 came hand in hand but now what, am I a Mercedes fan or Ferrari fan, I have no idea what to do 😅
@MattP1Tommy I will not believe this until one of the 3 parties involved make an official announcement. Why would mercedes tell brackley employees before doing a press release? Doesn't make sense.
"...I am judging no-one on their choices or the position that they find themselves in.” well actually, yes you are judging 🙄 also, not all children are going to benefit from staying at home with their parents 24/7, he's assuming everyone is a super parent who can do no wrong
@MartinSLewis Does anyone know what is happening to the current eligibility start dates once these new dates get rolled out next year? E.g. my daughter turns 3 in September 2023 so would get her 30 hours in January 2024, will this still be the case or will that change now?
@eleonorasfalcon@DJI81@MartinSLewis Why "should" 1&2 yr olds be with parents 24/7? First 5 years of childhood are the most important for development and future health and happiness than any other time. Nurseries provide early years education, not babysitting. & we need to have babies to produce the next generation
@PregnantScrewed If my nursery relaxes ratios and I get any hint of it being unsafe for my kids, I won't hesitate to pull them out, quit my (NHS) job and become a stay at home parent
@TomP1Bellingham I haven't quite finished it yet but season 1 is still the best in my opinion. The way they structured it, covered the Force India saga etc was great.
I know they can't include everything but like season 4 they've made odd decisions on what not to include this year and it's poor
@MattP1Tommy Do they show the final championship points at the very end, like they did in season 1? It's the only season they've done it so far, but it was a great way to conclude the episodes and the other seasons have felt strange without this conclusion.
Dear @RishiSunak
If you want to fix inactivity in the labour force, please fix the cost of childcare.
Women are being forced to leave jobs they love because childcare costs more than they earn. They WANT to work and contribute. Let them!
Please listen to @PregnantScrewed.
@JeremyClarkson Any apology he does give won't be sincere. No one writes something like he did and then legit regrets it, as proven by this pathetic tweet. If he ever apologises, it'll be because he's forced to, not because he wants to.
@NNorthantsC@voitechnology what can you do about scooters being left in the middle of pavements? They are regularly left across the entire width of the pavement on Butland Road, Corby & too heavy for me to move so I have to push my double buggy/2 little kids into the road around the scooters
@lillianeboulle @mill82s @PregnantScrewed That's absolute BS. My daughter had CMPA & was milk egg & soya free at nursery for nearly a year as well as being vegetarian. I had to provide a copy of her dietician letter but otherwise they were happy to cater for her dietary requirements. Glad you've found somewhere else now
