I saw a quote somewhere saying that it’s pointless dicking around with pedagogical strategies if you’re not going to address labour issues. That’s my paraphrasing. But I can’t remember who said it or where. #academicsky, any pointers? Feel free to make source recommendations.
fascinating thing about now being out of Westminster but still with some social ties there is that a lot of friends still in the bubble keep going on about how Kemi is doing a lot better these days, but as a now average joe I'm able to listen to them saying that and honestly reply: what?
And so we write to brilliant postgraduate students from Sudan, withdrawing the offers and scholarships they won in open competition with the best in the world. A sad day for the University of Oxford.
Just waiting now for Nigel Farage, Kemi Badenoch and Tony Blair to withdraw their repeated calls for the UK to join this madman in his illegal war.
Londoners maybe don't understand how huge this is because they've got so many stations.
Glasgow has two and they're not set up to be easily interchangeable - Central goes everywhere south, Queen Street everywhere north.
This is an actual Pentagon press release. “An Army believed to be casualty…the believed to be death”
Oh. And carry an Egyptian Dog god around the stadium.
“I could write three books on my time at Everton”. No, you couldn’t and if one where he is a mere smidgen of the story is anything to go by, it would be a dire offering
The reference to a player “who didn’t wanna play, almost” was really poor form. Similar to Benitez throwing out in his own post-sacking media career that an unnamed player had been injured moving furniture. A real snide.
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...
‘British expats, he claimed, were refusing to fill out evacuation forms provided by the British government “just in case it somehow turns into a tax form instead”.’
No notes.

The @ipso.co.uk ruling of Telegraph’s preposterous “We earn £345k but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays”, reveals the article to have been a fabrication. There is no such family as Al, Alexandra, Ali, Harry and Barry Moy. Glad to have acted as lead complainant on this.

A woman’s ex boyfriend, who is a cop, threatens to shoot her
Women are at the highest risk for being killed when they try to leave a relationship.
She calls 911 for help & the Police Chief WARNS the boyfriend instead.
Boyfriend opened fire on her car
We aren’t angry enough.
Remember when Everton used to have Saturday 3pm home games? Nah, me neither.
Last night I was sitting with the baby in his stroller while mom and dad spoke on a panel (so fancy)! This child looked me in my eyes, said, “I want to go outside” and then, a millisecond later, added “BY MYSELF” and immediately tried to escape out the front door
Walking around the baby/child sections of major retailers is a real roller-coaster ride between ‘oh, that is unbearably cute’ and ‘the world has gone totally mad’.

Nadia, this is a solid thread, but don't forget:
5) Don't make life harder for disabled people, trans people, and migrants.
It was missing from your list, and matters.
Poor Matt Goodwin. All he ever wanted was to be a hard working MP/academic/tv presenter/commentator/writer/pollster/wealth adviser/women’s health guru and you all ripped that away from him. A shame

Worth noting his objection to no fault divorce. I worked a bit on the campaign for that, and one of the striking things with the scholarship was the evidence that demonstrated allowing it led to a drop in suicides of married women.

This is a massive shift which would upend the lives of millions - not just the nearly half million directly threatened but their families. It would abandon a basic principle of law that changes are not retrospectively applied.

I can't think of a good reason to visit the USA on holiday at the moment. They clearly don't want us there.
They released this like this
