Brilliant... well done kids. Good luck in Vienna
This is cool! A state school has defeated Eton to reach the finals of the International History Bowl & Bee in Vienna. They’re former winners, and are sending two young teams to compete again

They need help with travel costs, can you help these young historians? www.gofundme.com/f/send-the-f...

This person is vile. Please share if you agree
Here is the key section of that train wreck of an interview by Robert Jenrick on #r4today.
