Did you not do Henry 8th? Or WW2? Demographics or agriculture in Geography. Was there a head boy and girl? Or a school council? Or charity fundraising? Or citizenship classes? These are the things that were and are being taught. The bit that gets twisted is because schools will have values around respect, tolerance etc. it’s gets picked up by bad actors as schools forcing ideology on kids. In reality it’s more schools trying to teach children to be nice. Unfortunately in only takes one daft teacher criticise Farage or Trump for the Mail and GB news to fire up the hate machine. No excusing the daft teacher for a minute but the reaction is always disproportionate. I do find it interesting that what they want to do to the curriculum is very Conservative 2015. Or what I’d expect and hopeful they’d learn the bits that didn’t work and the things that worked really well. |

Looking at what they’ve said about teaching politics and I can’t really see much difference to what’s been in place for the last 20 years - all about how democracy works and the political system. And of course it’s pretty impossible to teach history and geography without politics. I can see the issues you have with tax raising powers. Had a look at the Green’s Wales manifesto and it’s like reading a fantasy novel. It’s difficult to judge the Reform one as it looks like it’s costings have been done by giving a haddock a crayon on asking it to do it’s best. That’s if you can find the costings which in most cases aren’t available, partly ‘in case someone steals them’. Proper magic beans stuff. |

Just scan read the PC manifesto that was released today. Interestingly, their education policies are very similar to Reform (with the noticeable difference that Reform would introduce the Academy programme to wales). There’s some stuff I agree with and some I don’t, but I’ll wait for the workings behind the plans before I’ll say whether I like it or not. [Post edited 9 Apr 12:32]

My first reaction is it seems to be a very unfortunate and sad accident and should have been treated as such. |

I see extremists on both sides as equally dangerous. I think the current incarnation of the Greens and Polanski are a real concern. As I do of Farage and Reform. Two side of an equally dangerous coin. I see no difference between a purple haired agitator and raise the colours racist. Same same. |

No need to be gaslit. Just go there and not be taken in by those in the media who love to bash Britain. |

Have they taken out insurance and booked their funerals? As for the lawyer, it took me a while to realise he’s not a parody. [Post edited 3 Apr 11:32]

There’s loads of coverage UJ. It’s for the last two days it’s been a pretty high up in all the major newspapers. An awful event that hopefully will see the footage lead to further aressts. That idiot barrister on about London though 🤣 |

It’s the Trump way. He breaks it and leaves it to others to own it. I’m so pleased he has quite literally no support on this board. |

It always surprises me the amount of right wing shill journalists who earn their coin through peddling the islamification of broken Britain have moved to the UAE to get away with it, bragging about their safe streets. |

These are from the two accounts this thread is based on just this morning: Not true. Not true. |

I reckon what it’s got to do with dogs is it’s a good example of where a small story is either twisted or amplified to stir hate. The clip is around the record and continuously rising numbers of both dog ownership and the places they can enter. This was the twisted and shared by two racist X accounts to stir hate and anger. Worked, didn’t it? Yesterday, (it’s been taken down now), the Robinson account once again forgot to change uses and published a made up (by them) tweet pretending to be someone making contact to share their concerns about Pakistani males opening care homes in the north in order to access underage girls. All made up. Not only to people fall for it but send him money! [Post edited 2 Apr 13:04]

Virtue signaling happens on both sides, Dem. There’s a lot of being upset on behalf of others. How many on here have been effected directly by sharia law? Or been unable to access pork? In happy news, I’m back from London. I didn’t get murdered, still have my watch and managed a quick beer (just the one) on my travels. Come to think of it, I didn’t see one burka. Didn’t go that far, mind. [Post edited 1 Apr 20:41]
