But surely you could level a similar argument of ‘oh that was someone else’s fault’ whenever a political party makes a mistake. Surely they take ultimate responsibility for decision making and ensuring that public money is not wasted?
And this doesn’t bode well:
“Councillor Isabella Kemp, who was elected as a Reform councillor, was previously chair of the housing committee – but can’t sit on it anymore since being sacked by her party last week amid internal infighting. She was also vice-chair of the fire authority, which has been thrown into chaos by the latest raft of suspensions by Reform on the council, under leader Linden Kemkaran.”
I would actually vote for ANY party that would likely sort our EHCP crisis. That is my top priority. I think the measure of any great society is how you treat the most vulnerable within that society. So when I see chaos at ReformUK flagship council, and read the following about Reform - I am not liking the direction our country is heading when you look at the polls.
“Reform UK has proposed changes to the education, health and care (EHCP) system as part of a broader Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) reform. Key proposals include a narrowing of eligibility for EHCPs, with the potential to restrict them to the most severely disabled students, and an emphasis on in-school support through new minimum standards and teacher training, though a firm plan has not been finalised. Families have raised concerns that these proposed reforms could make it more difficult to obtain an EHCP and may prioritise short-term savings over the needs of children with SEND. “
