This was a mere video for the leadership contest of the greens. But it goes right to the heart of the issue. We all needed to see this. youtube.com/shorts/0MDzMvL… via @YouTube

He titled this piece the “The Divided States of America” but we in the “divided kingdom” can’t look away as we share the same reality. It’s has always been class war the burning question is how long we will pretend it isn’t! youtu.be/iFZyHclqZPQ?si… via @YouTube

I never thought I’d be so relieved to hear someone say the “fire engines aren’t coming” but I’d thought it for so long that hearing someone else say it is like breathing out… Is the economy causing a mental health crisis? youtu.be/L5QyBl85u1I?si… via @YouTube

The joys to come…closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran would significantly impact the UK through energy costs and potential disruptions to global trade. While the UK doesn't import a large amount of oil from the Gulf region, the global market is interconnected.

2023: British five-year-olds are up to 7cm shorter than children of the same age in Europe. Some experts are suggesting nutrition- and especially a lack of quality food - could be stunting the growth of children in the UK. The two-child cap remains 🤷‍♀️ itv.com/news/2023-06-2…

Good to see that the Government may not proceed with the rumoured freeze on PIP. But that's not enough. All the other cuts would still punish disabled and vulnerable people. The Government needs to drop any idea of balancing the books on the backs of the disabled and poor.

Every now and again in history someone stands up and their personal act of bravery and dedication starts a movement and changes a nation. I think that’s what we are seeing here. I hope I’m right because we need this! youtu.be/rAb_p5DCC3E?si… via @YouTube

"This is the great discovery of the conflict entrepreneurs: what counts in politics is not how well people are doing, but how well they're doing in relation to designated out-groups." So people support a class war against themselves. My column this week. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The best way to lose a game is to not even realise you are playing it. This collective state of economic blindness which stops us seeing the way of things really has to end.

Just posting since it seems not really covered on the news and some followers might not have seen it: The markets are really going for the UK today and they will probably force the government into spending cuts, possibly as soon as today.

8 major hospitals have declared critical incidents in the last 24hrs alone. Some of the 100s patients are stranded on trolleys, in corridors & in the back of ambulances will likely die there. This isn’t normal, inevitable or attributable to viruses alone. It’s a catastrophe.

1 in 4 women screens positive for a 'personality disorder' in young adulthood, yet this rate halves in later years. Attributing these profound difficulties to 'personality'—a supposedly lifelong trait—not only contradicts the data but reflects a misogynistic framing. #TraumaNotPD

Gisèle Pelicot’s fight for justice in the historic French rape trial is a rallying cry against the epidemic of rape and a system that silences survivors. Tomorrow, the verdicts are excepted. We stand with her.

It's notable how grateful parents are when others show their young kids respect. It's not hard. But I can't stress enough how hostile & resentful our society has become towards kids. Public spaces are increasingly harsh, & with safe spaces being eroded, it's hard for newbies. ⬇️

"Poorly planned play keeps children busy but does not support their development: their hands and bodies are active, but their minds are not".Looking at this highly contentious phrase from Ofsted, through the lens of Roessingh and Bence's (2018) work on embodied cognition, it's

Oh that every teaching degree (primary and secondary) followed on from a child development degree. Architects train for longer than teachers and we do trainee teachers a huge disservice . Teachers want to do right but so often lack the underpinning knowledge that they need.

Secondary teaching methods aren't always suitable for primary pupils. 👊Children's hands are not developed enough for a tripod grip until the ossification of their bones reaches a specific stage of biological development. 👊Children's working memories aren't usually fully…
