What’s the biggest waste of money you’ve witnessed in your time as a teacher? Whether in your department, school or nationally.

I’m embarrassed to be part of a country that has representatives that speak like this about other human beings. Humanity has to involve recognizing it in others and respecting it even when hard choices need to be made. These views would give ogres a bad name.
"If the accommodation isn't good enough for them they can get on a rubber dinghy back to France," Conservative MP Lee Anderson tells Suella Braverman. Braverman: "My friend is right... Any complaints that the accommodation isn't good enough is frankly indulgent and ungrateful."

This really surprised me. Does this make your brain hurt as much as it does mine? @zanderhinton figured this out last week and I still can't get over it. Every NBA match basically consists of 20,000+ people watching an area smaller than the 18-yard box.

This dinner lady says she cries going into work - because she has to deny children school lunch.

Dear @trussliz / @RishiSunak the cost of living crisis has left millions worried how they'll make ends meet. I'd like to formally invite you, as the new PM, to join me asap once you take office for a special hour's @itvMLshow discussion/Q&A to answer/ease people's concerns.

Was pleased to secure an in-depth interview with @trussliz on BBC1. I am disappointed & frustrated it’s been cancelled
Liz Truss has cancelled her BBC One interview with Nick Robinson which was due to air this Tuesday evening (30th August) at 7pm. Ms Truss’ team say she can no longer spare the time to appear on “Our Next Prime Minister”. (1/2)

Hi @AllisonPearson, my cohort had a delayed medical school graduation this year. Just dropping you my grad photo so you can tell me if I’m British or not? x

Latest voting intentions on @TeacherTapp … Worth remembering that 12% voted Conservative in 2017 and when we asked about intentions in 2018 it was still 9%. Also, Labour got as low as 20% in 2019.

Just a thought. Can we cancel all the Christmas adverts now? If parents are having to decide whether to eat or heat, how on earth are they going to cope when their children see ads for toys there is literally no money for?

Somewhere in Norway Ole G is sitting. Maybe fishing. Watching the sunset. And probably thinking to himself: - How did I manage to be second in the Premier League with those players. I must be a magician
