I’ve seen a confidential document from Lynton Crosby’s lobbying firm which advises Boris Johnson to ride roughshod over every convention and standard of propriety to pack the House of Lords. [Thread] theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Boris Johnson is planning to fill the Lords with his cronies and legitimise bribery | Gordon Brown

The honours system is rife with abuse and a paper by Lynton Crosby’s firm suggesting ‘rewards’ for compliant peers proves it, says former prime minister Gordon Brown

DfE please take this down. You do not know the situation for 24360 schools in England. You are not working in them. You are not caring for families who have concerns. You can not make this decision. We have already made the decision that is best for our community.

💉Many teachers and school staff had their last vaccination 5 months ago. 😟Their immunity is waning, just as we enter the most risky time of teaching in stuffy, unventilated classrooms. 😡Teachers and educators will not be offered the booster as they 'are not frontline staff'!

If the government were serious about home learning during lockdown, they would have hired strings of experts in our fields - writers, scientists, historians, geographers etc and got us to talk directly on zoom to different ages of students for 20-30 minute chunks.

They have been encouraged in that by DfE messaging this week; however, under union pressure, the DfE has now been forced to revise its guidance. The DfE now says: Critical worker parents and caters should keep their children at home if they can. 2/2 gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Change of DfE guidance I’m hearing from people, who COULD work from home, being told by their boss that they MUST tell their child’s school that they are a critical worker These employers are behaving irresponsibly in the face of the huge numbers of Covid cases. 1/2

Another Victory. @TheGreenParty has a long-standing policy for the abolition of SATs and for a broad curriculum rather than high-stakes testing that narrows the curriculum. #morethanascore
