Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.
Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.
Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

An excellent piece from @jazzawi.bsky.social on the importance of #education to meet head on the false rhetoric from the far right. The amount of children and young people involved in these despicable 'protests' is very disturbing.

The reason UBI, wealth taxes and social security is relentlessly attacked by billionaires, millionaires and the media is that the first two think that money exists for them and them alone and nobody else deserves access to money for leisure or, increasingly, for living.

Few will be surprised to learn that the racist men who were trying to burn down asylum seeker hotels and attacking random non-white people are also a massive danger to women with 2/5 having previous reports on file for domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking etc youtu.be/Y0oJGg8KVX0?...

A really good although harrowing analysis from Sky News of the day 🇮🇱 broke the ceasefire in March and the catastrophic consequences for the whole families wiped out in their attacks on that day, killing almost 200 children...in one day.
Horrific. Immoral.

It's lovely to look back sometimes. We did these in just 4 days, it was the end of a project for the kids, they'd learned loads and been on a trip to the Space Centre in Leicester, so they were very fired up. The 'learning' involved is far greater than the sum of what you can see here, I was amazed.

Art is always a great link up with science, in years past artists 'were' scientists, and scientists had to be artists, so it always works well.

Going back through this year's photos allows me to edit and file work so I can locate it, but it also reminds me of some of the stand-out projects. The Year 5's from Summerhill Primary did this in January. I remember how excited they were by the topic. 😁 www.darrellwakelam.com #edusky
