Have I got this right? Farage bemoaning the Greens win as a result of "family voting" means he thinks loads of Muslim women wanted to vote Reform but their husbands stopped them πŸ˜‚

Why some schools are pushing for 'active' uniforms over traditional ones Proponents say relaxed uniforms make life easier for children and are much more practical for physical play.

Yes please. I come across so many autistic children whose main barrier for attending school is a tie or a blazer. It's ridiculous.

I reckon the last time the son of a sovereign was taken into custody in Britain was the Duke of Monmouth in 1685.

It's a very scary prospect. My kids will only be 12 and 9 in 2029 and god knows what she would do to their education. One of them is in specialist. I'd probably have to home school if that is even still allowed.

Services currently available to people in #Gaza fall far short of what is needed, largely due to the destruction of the health system and restrictions imposed by Israel.

Now more than ever, Palestinians need more services, not less. Providing humanitarian assistance in Gaza is vital.

This was me exactly. When I was 4, my parents lost my pink shorts on the beach in Spain and they still talk about the meltdown I had. Hyper-empathy is both a blessing and a curse (for me anyway).

HOW IT WORKS IN MOVIES:

1. Government lies

2. Brave heroes release video showing the truth

3. Press says β€œthe government is lying!”

HOW IT APPARENTLY WORKS IN REAL LIFE

1. Brave heroes release video showing the truth

2. Government lies

3. Press says β€œOh no, what now? So confusing! So hard!”

I do find it a bit weird that some people believe low level disruption can be eliminated completely because children and young people are human beings and I've seen plenty of what those people would call low level disruption in rooms full of teachers doing CPD. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Is Reform UK putting foreign billionaires ahead of our NHS? A Reform government would look to cut funding to the NHS by Β£26 billion. At the same time, they are looking to give tax breaks to people who can afford private healthcare

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

Ministers introduced legislation in the Commons yesterday to end the ban on paying some benefits to large fami-lies. They say that this will take almost half a million children out of poverty.
Farage, leader of Reform UK, told a press conference on Wednesday that his party would vote against scrapping the two-child limit, despite having previously suggested he could back the change. He said he was concerned that it would "benefit huge numbers of foreign-born people".

Farage says he will now vote against scrapping the two-child limit. In case it benefits β€œforeign-born people”.

It’s not just the racism, it’s the out-of-control personal greed, combined with the staggering meanness.

He’s a repulsively inadequate man.

You can't revoke citizenship for tweets! You can prosecute, if it falls within the law, but revoking citizenship is insane.

Health. Better fed kids will be healthier and happier. What they are achieving academically shouldn't be being used to measure that or the value of free school meals. It's not the only important thing.
