@suecowley.bsky.social wanted to acknowledge how much your recent posts have influenced my view on true inclusion. At a training session yesterday I gave you a shout out for how we need to look at the whole process differently
Thank you

New post just out:

The relationship between Russia and the European radical right goes well beyond Reform's Nathan Gill being bribed.

In this post I trace the history back to the 1990s and look at the threat it poses now.

Absolutely/ essentially it’s trying to give some semblance of a group to concepts of the Left, and indeed the centre
It’s bonkers

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

Not sure I agree on this one- lots of superb singles and the Ladies and Gentlemen album is brilliant

Dan Morrow @moremorrow.bsky.social · 8d

Yes I get it and I know you’re here, there and everywhere too. I stopped because I found this issue of tickets super annoying! On way back from Liverpool got in trouble because I had a Cross country ticket and was on an Avanti train! (Was ok- this is where looking dim actually pays off for me)

Give up on Trainline- have downloaded the company Apps and find that information is better and the tickets are cheaper. Trainline became popular because it doesn’t have a booking fee but it is not helpful IMO as takes any route it can find without thought and usually ends up being more expensive

I will take that as a “Great minds think alike!”

It is utterly absurd. Beyond contemptuous

Love this

Love it- your whole list so much more interesting and edgy than mine but am embracing later-middle-age Dad vibes these days
All good and hope the same with you!

Utterly despicable.

This Israeli government decision to host Tommy Robinson will widen the growing gulf between the Netanyahu government and the British public, including the broad majority of Jews in Britain (3/4 of whom dsapproved of Netanyahu, before this new link to this anti-Muslim racist UK far right convict).

Year 11 here. Not saying there haven’t been times, especially in the last 3 years, the exit hasn’t looked highly attractive but this is a job where with the right team, support and mission you can make a huge difference.

New government retention analysis has revealed one third of secondary headteachers now leave their roles within three years of appointment

1 in 3 secondary heads leave within three years

But a lack of data on central academy trust teams could be skewing analysis, DfE warns
