My wife's a teacher, they're all worried about going back to an environment where nobody can tell them it's safe and it's hard to guarantee distancing or protection. Given the choice they'd much rather be in safe classrooms doing a job that's primarily face to face and easier than struggling to do whatever they can at home now. Anyone claiming laziness can fuck off.

A reasonable estimate for good teaching is double or triple the time spent in the classroom outside of it, varies by course (more for English, less for PE) and experience level of the teacher. Then you have TLRs/Management responsibilities on top. Coursework season can easily lead to you marking and remarking work for entire classes multiple times a week let alone a term.

The days of teachers that rocked up at 8:30 and hit the pub at 3 went out with the cane.

In this country. Some countries still value their teachers and treat them well. That's why so many are fucking off.

I bet if you'd asked teachers to procure some PPE they wouldn't have spaunked tax payers money on 400,000 duff gowns from a dodgy Turkish t shirt salesman.

Says the important JLR guy who's managed 50k posts on here.

It gets lonely being a security guard. Especially when everyone in the main gatehouse has had enough of you so they’ve kicked you out and you’re sitting in the little one on your own dealing with exits.

Coventrian can keep him company. Two wankers in a pod.

Would actually be intersted to hear from Coventrian assuming he was back in work yesterday. Wonder how JLR managed workers return.

Government approval

But but this weird man on a city website says everyone loves the government. Please also note this a YouGov poll and is not just related to the handling of the pandemic

It seems the public oppose the current plans to reopen schools.

I see Tony Blair has been wheeled out in support of reopening schools. That'll bolster public support.

That’s despite a PR campaign in certain newspapers of portraying teachers as the enemy.

What the fuck is that all about? I can't speak about over there but I know my two are getting emails, work, zoom meetings, all kinds of stuff and its really good- the teachers are working their arses off. Why are teachers getting demonised like this?

Because the frothy right are trying to prop up their terrible government.

Manipulating people’s point of view ‘evidently’ only works when said people
Aren’t directly affected.

Because they’re low hanging fruit. Most people’s experience of teachers is as authority figures so they love slagging them off. Also as Grendel shows most people’s ideas of what teachers do is about 30 years out of date.

What for mocking your rather sad and pathetic reactions?

You are the prick who attacked people for looking at facts and not swallowing the governments nonsense whole.

He reminds me of John Culshaws parody of Ross Kemps Gangs “things are getting hairy, I’m out of here”.

Part time PM.
And his supporters have got the cheek to moan about teachers!!
He's one lazy bastard.

Good to see we're keeping on top of the vital issues in these unusual times

The government is considering introducing an extra bank holiday, possibly in October around the time of half-term.

It's all distraction stuff, treat the electorate like kids.

An extra bank holiday you say?
If only Labour had thought about putting that in their manifesto.
