Wes Streeting, "We've had an independent inquiry into child sexual exploitation, not a single one of those recommendations was implemented by the Conservative government"

"Labour are determined to implement those recommendations"

recently heard to A Murder of Quality, a very early le Carré. His post scriptum rant about private schools is one of the most eloquent I've heard. Won't get into a fistfight but I remain baffled as to why we are still doing this, buying a place at the top of the pile. Archaic and damaging.

Today my school have banned staff from calling children ‘dear’ or ‘pet’ or indeed any other term showing familiarity. The world has gone mad. I can’t recall all 1400 students names.

Such a relief to have escaped the Musk algorithms 😊
