@Adrian_Hilton Behave yourself. Teenagers find ways to get alcohol when they're underage, so shall we just remove age restrictions? Some teenagers also watch porn online. Shall we just let all under-18s watch it because of that? There are always ways. Not everything is a conspiracy theory.

@LukeTryl It's also a perfectly acceptable form of democracy. I can vote for who I want for whatever reason. If it means stopping someone abhorrent from winning, all the better.

@skylermzx @BBCWalesNews Schools have phones. Mobiles have been around for 20-ish years. Do you think there were no emergencies before mobiles were a thing?

@elliswayman @ElectionMapsUK @Moreincommon_ Exactly. I have no issue with Starmer as PM other than the fact that he's made a couple of poor judgement calls, but if Burnham gives us a better chance of defeating Reform, I'd sooner see him in place. Labour have done a poor job of communicating their successes.

@Hookean1 I teach WJEC GCSE and A-level. I've also been an examiner for AQA. Would choose WJEC any day of the week. I'm quite surprised more schools in England haven't cottoned on to Eduqas yet.

[rophnode @rophnode]

@AndyFitchet To an extent, I agree. The problem we have though is that the public are rapidly losing faith in (and patience with) Starmer. Mistakes, poor judgements and electoral backward steps mean that I don't see how he can continue for much longer.

@flowidealism My job isn’t to keep my pupils happy. It’s to educate them and keep them safe. They’re teenagers, not customers.

@BethRigby PM-in-waiting?! Are you kidding Beth? We’re years away from a GE, and all you do is imply that the next election will be some kind of coronation for Farage. This isn’t journalism. It’s trashy sensationalist garbage. Do better for God’s sake.

@daleyterrier75 @breeallegretti Grow up man. Repeatedly using “Liebour” as some kind of insult is boring. I teach 12-year-olds who have a more mature vocabulary than you.

@sec_sci_teacher @RogersHistory Completely. Last year I did do after-school revision with my Year 11s (they were a fabulous class - they all bought into the sense of collective purpose) on a Friday afternoon. About 70% of the class turned up. If they're serious about it, they'll do it.

@LORDLJS @BBCWalesNews Of course it’s democracy. If the parties say what they’re going to do and people vote for them, it’s democracy in action.

[rophnode @rophnode]

@TTRadioOfficial @RogersHistory Complete garbage. “Do what you want and there won’t be consequences”. Get in the bin. Besides, forgetting PE kit is hardly bad behaviour.

@steveo49sc56051 @BBCBreakfast We're not rejoining the EU, therefore it's not a betrayal of a democratic vote. Sit down you moron.

@JonLocke @lewis_goodall So he’s lying then?

[rophnode @rophnode]

@GranelloGregory @Art_of_Combat_ @CurtisHouck @thehill @JuliaManch Oh look. Another idiot American. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid, Gigi.

[rophnode @rophnode]

@PaulVick138203 @Diet_coke1968 I’m a paid-up member of Labour but I can’t vote for them in May. They’ve become too complacent in Wales and haven’t done a good job at all. I’ll be voting Plaid to try and make sure Reform don’t win.

[rophnode @rophnode]

@ReusserJoe @SpeakerPelosi It’s the USA’s war, not NATO’s. Why should they support the USA? The idiot POTUS hasn’t got a clue what he’s doing, and the entire world knows this.

[rophnode @rophnode]

@SlytherclawPdwn @herotimeszero The USA has never been the most developed or the most progressive. It’s the richest. That’s all.
