I'm unsure about this, mister. I was a special schools teacher (eventually headmaster!) in Berkshire until about ten years ago and, even with our higher proportions of non-white children, I'd say most of the children were white well into the 90s. But happy to be proved wrong!

Sorry, I'm not sure this is an appropriate topic for your trolling, "Steve". A proper binman has been taken from us, a young lad is in the hospital, but apparently this is all just an excuse to rehabilitate the racist far-right... Go back to Twatter

As a retiree myself I can tell you this is fairly normal, especially in America where the health system is awash with cash unlike ours after years of Tory cuts

What's his nationality got to do with anything?

The effects of Starmer's sanctions working their way through the Russian system... Perhaps Putin should've thought about that before he invaded a peaceful neighbour

Disgusting trying to use a family tragedy to sow division

Wow, what a cesspit that site has become, formerly known by the great name 'Twitter'. Now it's called 'X', like some sort of sex shop - and the contents are no less wicked. I would report the account in question but I have deleted my twitter account

Not to nitpick, Mr Katwala, but whether it is"currently unlawful" is irrelevant since they are proposing to change the law by statute. As a lifelong socialist I'm old enough to remember when being gay was "currently unlawful" and marital r*pe was "currently lawful"! Do better 👍

Not for me, I'm retired! 😂

Except it's the summer holidays so I have my grandsons tomorrow. Really looking forward to it, I'm going to take them to see HMS Victory! 😁

Please don't let's be disrespectful to two of our finest poets. I bonded with my late wife over our shared love of Kubla Khan

Reminds me of Le Cathedrale Engloutie by Claude Debussy, one of my favourite piano works. A good one for calming some of my rowdier pupils:

I made my nephew watch Adolescence and I'm glad I did

Whatever happened to mutual aid, common understanding, trust in your fellow man? This world keeps getting bleaker and bleaker

Believe that's apocryphal. Also quite a graphic image, not something I like to see at bedtime. Thank you.

Thank you, Nikole! :)

You know there are ways to share such images for those who want to see them without forcing them onto the screens of everyone? I'm trying to go to bed and you've shown me homosexual erotica! Please stop!

A link to X? I can't stand that site. Please consider deleting this post. You can always download the video and reshare directly

As a lifelong socialist who lived through the Thatcher years, I certainly WON'T be saying RIP to Norman Tebbit
