This brought a tear to my eye. https://www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/gmb-host-speechless-former-far-33419428

It is a very diverse and elite school, one of the best in the country. Astonished

It's astounding how little self awareness he has. Crowing about his children but yet is happy for his followers to terrorize Muslim children?
No-one I've ever spoken to that hates TR and all he stands for has a single bad word to say about his children, because it's hardly their fault that they have him as a parent. That seems to be the difference between his followers and his haters, his haters agree that no child should be in danger whereas his followers only believe that privilege is appropriate for 'white British' children.

There are some extreme people in the Conservatives. I guess they will drift to Reform.

Mmm. Having had a bit more of a look at Anthony Boutall’s X account I may file a complaint to the Dept of Ed. I think it’s possible that some of what he’s posting could verge into extreme political beliefs.

I feel quite heartened this morning.
Also because thanks to our local mobility shop, DS' replacement wheelchair has been moved to the front of the queue and is being made this week! We might even have it next week, but if not there's still a better than even chance it will be done by the time he goes back to uni.

That’s good news Pointy!

@pointythings - that is good news !

Huxzah! Hoping more good things for you

Great news, Pointy!

Great news pointy, may it happen soon.

See that MN is still like whack-a-mole.

Brilliant news pointy. I imagine you were very persuasive.

Yep. The racists are still going.

You seen what his specific remit is at his school?

Good luck with your complaint Apollo, I doubt it's the first.

Thats great news Pointy.

It wasn't me! It was the man who runs the mobility shop. They're an independent local company and they're amazing. The chair is manufactured in France, so it's not necessarily straightforward, but clearly there's good collaboration there.

I bet the nice purple haired lady charmed the man in the mobility shop!

I’d also be concerned that as a politics teacher he thinks the recent violence is Marxist in origin…
I generally don’t think teachers should have to give up their social/political lives, but I think he may have gone too far.

Thought everyone might enjoy this

Great news @pointythings ! I hope your son manages ok while on holiday. So pleased his wheelchair will be ready for him soon.

Finally managed to catch up. Loving all the rats fighting in a sack to blame each other.

I watched this.

The whole interview was brilliant.

He was on Newsnight the other night.
