That IS a fun fact! Typical ‘That’ll do’-ism for which we are renowned.

A question for the CAR committee to be honest. I was surprised by the absence of recommendations for A-Level.

Also hearing that today is the day Kent is sending out the latest wave of redundancy letters - around 150, mostly to non-academic staff.

I don’t even know what to say anymore. Lives to be destroyed. Expertise gutted. A generation of linguists. The journal Nottingham French Studies has done so much for the field too.

Must be. Absolutely shocking.
