I don't think there are good arguments against this position

This is an OUTRAGEOUS assault on the press and just goes to show that Convicted Felon Donald Trump doesn’t want people to see the truth about what is happening in our country when he tries to silence us!

not actual size*

I loathe this government.

What the hell? Is she against the fundamental principle of education for one being for the benefit of all?!

I mean, Konstatin Kisin holds no public office, he is responsible for absolutely nothing. All he does is lie and race bait for clicks and cash. There is absolutely no justification for using the licence fee to give him air.

The BBC normalising yet another grifting, lying, race baiter is the story here. Why are we paying for this?

Do not always send suspended students home, government tells schools Changes to England's school system say on-site suspensions should be used for non-violent behaviour.

Looking for announcement of further funding for hosting, staffing and training on Alternative Provision facilities.

Can't seem to find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

1. Been thinking about this more overnight.
Years back I worked at a school where the MAT told us to reduce suspensions by "finding other strategies."
They gave no guidance on what these should be. They sort of "challenged" us to find them.
I'm sure the aim was noble but it was bad..

CNN: “Trump called you a loser.”

REPUBLICAN @SenThomTillis: “I’m thrilled about that. That makes me qualified to be homeland security secretary AND senior advisor to the president.” 🔥 👀

YouTube video by KSAT 12 Protesters detained, hit by tear gas near Dilley family detention facility

Omg! Local San Antonio news is at a protest in Dilley, Texas at the Family Prison where Liam Ramos is being held.

Y'all I'm crying so hard. These young people are so brave. I'm guessing most are from San Antonio.

Absolutely clear video proof that the cops were the only violent actors here.

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

YouTube video by NBC10 Philadelphia Philly DA vows to prosecute ‘wannabe Nazi' ICE agents who violate the law

"If we have to hunt you down, the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities. We will find you. We will achieve justice. And we will do so under the Constitution and laws of the United States."

On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.

But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.

Universal basic income could be used to soften hit from AI job losses in UK, minister says Lord Stockwood says people in government ‘definitely’ talking about idea as technology disrupts industries

I think they're starting to get it....

Unrestrained, unregulated #AI has the power to wipe out MASSIVE numbers of jobs: it should be taxed and #BasicIncome paid to avoid catastrophic societal upheaval.

quite surprised that no-one at homeland security has used that video footage to accuse ilhan omar of attacking that man, but give it a few hours
