    Sounds like the wife wasting an hour to tell me she has no time to do anything.

    I really hoped they had learnt something by now. When we opened in September daily cases were 1-2K. Now if he goes and opens full tilt on 8th March it’s likely cases will be around 7-8K. A phased return along with a vaccination program can end this once and for all, but we are destined to repeat...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Maybe - but as we’ve seen over the last 5 years... it’s far easier to portray a message of hate or intolerance via a media platform than it is a message of hope. That’s what Labour are up against. More people will share messaging of hating on Harry and Meghan than they will of kids going hungry.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Whilst I don’t disagree necessarily - Labour’s PV policy was borne from the will of the membership. These weren’t what you would call ‘extreme’ (apart from their Brexit position) so you could argue the moderate members were complicit in an absurd policy. The more extreme members were far more...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There are several different points here to address for me. Firstly there is a question to be asked about the conduct of party officials leading up to the 2017 GE. Lots of members paid their subs in good faith (including myself) and I don’t expect people to behave in that manner. Maybe that is...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Whose to say it isn’t you that is detached from reality? You have your own ideas for how the party should act/move forward but it doesn’t mean ultimately you are right. Only time will tell us who’s closer to the mark. You certainly have a point about it being hard to lay a decisive blow on the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    The Brexit argument is gone - he has at least accepted it and moved past it (wish he’d done the same in early 2019) I want to hear more ideas on post-Covid. There was a bit of it today, but people want to hear how he will stop them losing their houses after furlough is over, or how his idea...

    He doesn’t provide anything to enthuse about. Some people call it sensible apparently.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Was talking to my mum about this - she’s wetting herself in excitement as she thinks it’s the end of the ‘anti-Brexit’ BBC and Sky News. Its just going to be LBC with more cameras.

    In the early episodes was a fan of Leofric... now I think probably Beocca, Finan and Aethelfaed (Uhtred aside)

    Don’t know to be honest, I do think schools will look at letting them go, as it frees up capacity for things like transition (even if it is virtual) and next year planning.

    We have 120 in a school of 1300. It’s less than 10% but I hear the proportion in Primary is significantly higher.

    This is a sensible idea. In terms of secondary alone, they should begin with exam year groups only (maybe Y7 too as it would help them and parents too) get them sorted for whatever they need for results and then send Y11 and Y13 them on their way. Then you phase in the remaining years, building...

    Probably why the government are wanting to take more control of the NHS... can’t have them and their cronies shown up by the people on the ground.
