At least that's something but contact time has been traditionally low in humanities and arts subjects for as long as they've existed

Yeah as I said once before, I did my degree at a university where the course was rated fourth in the country at the time, after Oxford, Cambridge... Warwick (I think). That was mainly because of its stellar research ratings. Shame that meant no bugger was about to actually do any teaching!

But that wasn't now, either.

I heartily agree, regards both the almost total collapse of decent, secure employment (which has been happening in the Western economies since the turn of the seventies) and the fact that intergenerational politics serves only those who seek to exploit us.

Agree on that.

Yours was something in the middle though, not quite humanities not quite science. I had 35 hours a week, Mrs BSB doing pure humanities had barely 10 but was writing a few essays a week.

Always fun to hear about academic integrity from someone who can’t spell “their” consistently and works in Marketing, the hairdressing of office jobs.

Let's all fall for it and get in a argument with each other again about who had it worse, while in reality we are all getting bent over.

Surely the Labour Party have a PR team who should be checking this sort of thing out in advance?

Kier giving out some to landlords is nice to see. Not the right type of landlord mind you, but it’s a start.

Dunno to be honest.... I don’t think Starmer has done anything wrong here... but what I will say his ‘team’ of advisers have dropped another absolute clanger which is about the 6th time in a month.
He needs some new people round him and fast.

Top quote from a dear Tory

'You can't knock the Tories for it being clear what they're about...Brexit, anti-immigration, strong policing'

The individual in question is Asian and didn't respond to the 10,000 strong drop in police numbers under Tory rule. Questioned on our impressive death rate we got

'Well Corbyn would've given all our vaccines to poor countries'

You might be right, but they are bending the rules all over. Didn’t Boris get snapped last week in a cafe having a meeting and some food?
Its obviously that Parliamentary Privilege we hear about.

I want to see more of this from Starmer.
Take no shit from anyone
Put some stick about.
No nuance or fence sitting.
People respect it even if they disagree. Being mealy mouthed will get him nowhere

This is what I was saying, his advisers are fucking suspect. Few weeks ago sending him to the one church in London that’s into corrective behaviour therapy for homosexuality... just do some research at the very least.

Ungenerous headlines under Corbyn: “This is clear evidence of the bias in the MSM against the left!!”

Ungenerous headlines under Starmer: “This just proves how useless the Labour right are”

Oh Labour internal Rorschach test, never change.

It wasn't Ian who said it wasa PR disaster.
But he's right about those around him.
You honestly think questions won't be getting asked today?
I actually thought the pub bloke came across as an absolute weapon more than anything.

It's just silly expectations isn't it? Confrontations happen on walkabouts, they always have. Are they supposed to quiz the people in every building to check none are nutters before heading in?

Some nutter went nuts, that's all. The Metro are reporting as 'plucky honest hard working member of the public slates Starmer' and the Labour left are swinging in behind, but that's just as much spin as 'Corbyn hates the country because he doesn't bow low enough' or whatever from 2015-17.
