I don't know about you but I'm finding it difficult to go through this all over again. I don't mean lockdown. I mean the futility & powerlessness of watching such catastrophic denial & incompetence. Last time, I raged. This time...well, what's point? I know. You know. We all know

The Prime Minister calls it NHS Test and Trace, but it's more like Serco Test and Trace. Today I called on Boris Johnson to bring Test and Trace into public hands.

Join my new political party, The Revenge. Our manifesto is [screaming blood], [crows block out the sun], UBI, [white hot metal spheres replace eyeballs], aggressive public sector investment, a four day week, and [four mile long obsidian dagger impacts Palace of Westminster].

This is all such an awful fudge by people who are so out of their depth but utterly convinced they are not. I know it would be comforting to think that our COVID response is being screwed by corruption or ideology, but it's not. This is national death by Dunning Kruger.

I KNEW it. Orange rind, pork rind, the clues were there all along.
Forgot to take my phone to the loo so now I know this Pantene bottle has 31 P’s on it including the little embossed HDPE mark.
Took me twenty minutes to change a single number and add a backslash to a website file because of a cavalcade of things hanging, updating, crashing, and me accidentally hitting the wrong keyboard shortcut in an unfamiliar text editor. I am so good at computer.
It is Wednesday my du- *clock ticks over* OH CRIPES
Ooh, a low key panic attack all day long? I’ll take one! Wait no, shit, aaaa
Oh Christ. Matt Hancock has now given Dido Harding £10bn of our money to play with... ...because she has a whole *3 years* of experience in health. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Why always with the olive oil.
CORN GROWS OUT THE SIDE?!
I’m not sure what’s more nauseating, this brazen greed or the idea of hancock “gushing”.

and of course this is going to hit lower income students harder
Looks like Johnson & Williamson have even ballsed-up their ‘screeching” U-turn: “BTEC and other vocational quals not included in U-Turn. One grade drop at btec is equivalent to 2 a level grade drops in terms of ucas points. So many students still affected.”

The A-Levels situation in England is unbelievably fucked. Ranking students forces them to compete for a limited number of grades based on the previous year’s results, which is fundamentally unfair to individuals. Here’s a good post explaining the detail: hepi.ac.uk/2020/08/10/a-leve…
