Some we’ve had seem to run out super quick.
Anyone have any suggestions as to good but relatively inexpensive mini whiteboard pens? @adamboxereducation.bsky.social?
Three years from now, we could have a Reform cabinet filled almost entirely by people we don’t currently know the names of, as they aren’t even MPs.

I think that’s what Laura’s used to look like.
Where on Earth do Reform supporters think they will find sufficient reliable MPs who can last the course through a Parliamentary term?
Wow. Deform have announced their spokes-failures for some departments. At education and skills it’s the very sackable Suella Braverman.
Can we now look forward to an ITV Sunday evening, Amanda Holden and Alan Carr hosted show in which half-remembered soap stars and celebrities from TOWIE are hurtled down a slope on a tea tray? Thingymabobsleigh.

I first read Pullman’s Northern Lights when I started teaching in 2001-02. Just finished the second trilogy after 25 years, in which time I read the first trilogy to our daughter & watched the BBC version with her. Not a sad ending, but sad the series has come to an end. He’s a phenomenal writer.

Jenrick starts talking and is instantly fucking useless. It's like his brain is being read out by AI.
I don’t doubt these issues exist, though can’t help but feel that there was never a golden era of assessment in English.

Can anyone tell me why journalists believe they have to say “accused of racism” in articles like this? Why does it seem it’s worse to directly call out racism than it is to be a racist?
