WTF Angry

Who the hell is signing this off?

It's ridiculous and it's needs to stop.

You have to love that poll, though - 97%? Is that all...!

Exactly what I was going to say Stonewall scam

£600K?? Good grief. Just think of putting that money towards school resources.
Yup. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Who signed this off? They should be out of a job...

Purpletomato · 05/11/2021 10:50

Wow, insane amount of money. Could be spent on other resources or on working with disability and SEN advisory groups.

BloodinGutters · 05/11/2021 10:26

Maybe a silly question but have they left so dc scheme? When?

Feel like I should know this, but can’t recall details, I know ofsted left this year along with ehrc & ofcom & d of h. Just memory failing me today.

The amount individual schools and colleges pay from their own budget is presumably on top of this.

Also to bear in mind this is just one department of many that were signed up.

@CreepingDeath

I'm so glad this is getting more airtime. It is such a scandal that so much money is going to one lobby group to push a ridiculous agenda.

Hopefully people will wake up to this, there needs to be a public enquiry into how this was allowed to happen.

This!!!!!

Very good to see MPs asking questions.

Especially - infuriating as it is - when they're male.

RepentMotherfucker · 05/11/2021 09:13

I'll.never understand how we ended up in a situation where organisations - and government bodies - paid a lobbying group to lobby them.
