"Progress 8 is not fit for purpose & undermines inclusion. In a speech to the @tesmagazine.bsky.social@jonnyuttley.bsky.social suggested the govt’s main performance measure is 'entirely gameable' & results in some of the most vulnerable young people in the country losing out." 1/2

Here's K.Badenoch, who thinks an autism diagnosis entails "economic advantages and protections". She also queries providing school transport for autistic kids & has no idea what neurodiversity/divergence are, and why they have abs nothing to do with, say, anxiety. Pls repost

Like Brexit, a policy of leaving the ECHR would split the Tory party Like Brexit, there is no consensus on what would replace it, beyond nebulous references to the common law or Raab’s fatuous Bill of Rights It would breach the Good Friday Agreement It could only weaken the protection of rights

Jenrick thinking of Hancock? Anthony Aloysius Hancock: Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain? Brave Hungarian peasant girl who forced King John to sign the pledge at Runnymede and close the boozers at half past ten! Is all this to be forgotten?

By his own standard, Musk has forfeited the public trust.

Two tweets from Elon Musk:

For Twitter to deserve public trust, it must be politically neutral, which effectively means upsetting the far right and the far left equally

Trump/Vance MUST win. I can't handle 4 years of seeing and hearing Kamala/Walz. That would be cruel and unusual punishment!

Home from Redlands #ChichesterFT. There are not enough superlatives to describe the excellent cast, the script, direction, staging, the music, all effectively recreating the stories surrounding Jagger/Richards set-up court case. Slick, including set changes. 5* from us.
