Join @adamspence.bsky.social and I on @ttradioofficial.bsky.social this evening. We ask “should the government maintain the 50% faith cap in oversubscribed free schools, or should they remove it to allow more faith-based admissions?"

It seems misinformation is not a new phenomenon. I grew up believing that a road runner is faster than a coyote. What else is false?

“Teachers/Educators”

There are an estimated 300,000 children not in school! On @ttradioofficial.bsky.social Education Tonight @adamspence.bsky.social and I discuss what is happening.

We react to the DfE. recommendation of 2.8% pay increase, is it “appropriate”?

A somewhat astonishing tweet from Boris Johnson given, according to the BMJ the Tories “wrote off almost £10bn worth of unused PPE during pandemic, accounts show.”

I’m struggling to watch this never mind the poor parents, this is dehumanising, degrading and frankly shameful in this day and age.

Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women & Girls.

Every 10 minutes, partners and family members killed a woman intentionally in 2023.

The Green Party would make misogyny a hate crime across the UK and increase the police’s capacity to deal with domestic violence.
