The thing is right, he's gonna do all this and be lauded by our credulous dipshit journalist class because he's managed to bamboozle them all into believing he's some horny-handed Connor toil and not a Cambridge English graduate turned career politician because they've never heard a Northern accent.
MDWThis is nuts. So he wants a different curriculum for every town? County? Honestly, for some technical jobs the level of maths is not up to scratch at 14. I hear him compare it to The Netherlands and Germany. Bloody hell. The Dutch pupils trying uni here in Belgium have huge problems. 🤦♀️

Congratulations to the fantastic Dr. Teddy Power, who successfully defended their thesis, "Queer and Subversive Adaptation Theory in Contemporary Fantasy Television" yesterday, and many thanks to Teddy's examiners and chair, @mjrsangster.bsky.social @marthashearer.bsky.social & Emilie Pine!

The Guardian's key role in the artificially created rise in transphobia, and its determination to avoid even acknowledging the issue in political coverage, is why I will never, ever be anything but annoyed at their pop ups begging for money. Want my money? Don't be shitbags.
