Jumped on the bandwagon and started a Substack! Loving it so far, do check it out. I’d appreciate it 💙

Sonia Sodha, "The state pension has gone up, but the threshold that young people have to repay their student loans has been frozen"

"Graduates in their 20s and 30s pay an extra 9% of income tax"

"There are people in their 20s that will never own their own home"

"They're going to get to retirement in the private rented sector. It's overpriced, its bad value. They won't have enough money in their pension and all of a sudden they won't have anywhere to live because they haven't bought a house and they haven't paid off their mortgage"

"Young people are facing a crisis in terms of the world they're going out into"

"My worry is the political parties are tinkering on the edges of this" #BBCQT

The current state of political discourse in the UK.

Gaza has reached level 5 starvation — which means its irreversible even if food becomes available again the bodies are gonna be permanently damaged. Let that sink in.

[Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz]

I'm sorry if this is antisemitic but I think it's wrong to deliberately starve thousands of children to death.

I think a big part of tackling racism in football is actually tackling racism in sports journalism, the reality is that an awful lot of journalists need to be held accountable for the language they use and normalise towards POC

Michelle Agyemang. Your importance will spread across generations. The amount of young girls who have just watched a black girl with a string Ghanaian surname, rescue England. You superstar.

[Brendan May @bmay]

Dunno if it’s just me but with all these mostly very old men in charge bombing each others’ civilians in many corners of the earth I’m starting to wonder if we should let women have a go running things.

Would there be quite as much carnage? Frankly I doubt it.

WATCH: Woman has breakdown, sobs on live TV at "No Kings" protest

"I'm just so scared. I'm 74 years old. I worry about everything. I just, I just am so scared and upset, and I don't - I don't understand why people voted for this person."

[Will Hutton @williamnhutton]

Occasionally Labour Party comms hits a bulls-eye.

White people in South Africa still cannot speak Zulu even after settling there for almost four hundred years.

If countries globally decided to put in the same language requirements for immigration BRITS WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE LOOOOOOOOOOOL

[Laura @technologylaura]

Non-educators don’t understand the day-to-day realities of teaching.

[Paige Furlonge-Walker @pfwanne]

Couldn’t agree more

[Tom Bennett OBE @tombennett71]

The debate around subject knowledge and pedagogy for teacher efficacy mirrors the debate around student subject knowledge and transferable skills like creativity. You cannot be an effective teacher, no matter how good your pedagogy, if you don’t know what to teach; what to correct; what needs to come next. Effective pedagogy *requires* high levels of subject knowledge. It embodies it. Like being skilful requires content.

[Boze Herrington, Library Owl 😴🧙‍♀️ @SketchesbyBoze]

No offense but I think we underestimate how many of our current problems, culturally and politically, are downstream of the decline in learning, the decline in critical thinking and the loss of interest in the humanities.

To this day I have no idea what Megan Markle did to be hated this much
