We have the ballot box and public media. Little else.
If more people spoke forcefully about education, then it would move up the ladder on party manifestoes.
MPs are far from perfect, but many of them IMHO do try to carry out their promises, they do attempt to do what is good for the country, rather than just for themselves. And I reckon that is true (more or less) in all parties.
I can see no short cuts.
If anyone promises an easy fix I am 99.99% sure, they are either liars or fools.
Or liars and fools!
How has that worked so far in history?
Whatever party that gets in after they have promised the earth still display the same crap, or a version of their own brand of crap.
Like more oeople speaking forcibly about illegal immigration for instance?..howmuch more forcibly does it require?
You won’t agree but the vast majority of people in this country are sick of it with all the sh that accompanies it and it’s effects.
I aint getting into a Party points scoring match with you, but the lates version was going to stop it by smashing the gangs…but in reality.zilch…
So what difference is it or willit be with education in schools.
Thing is mate I aint saying that Ican see a solution either…
What else is there?
We do not get all the ambitions of every promise instantly.
Of course not, as you say “this is the real world”.
But we do get to talk about, and vote on, which direction a new government should move.
wihout getting off track as you say
The current gov is probably doing more about migration than they would have done of it wasn’t in the media all the time. For some (probably you) it isn’t enough etc but I do think they are doing more than they would otherwise have done. They are certainly not ignoring it.
If education were on the “front pages” as much as migration, then more would be done about it.
so its nothing to do with their election promises its only because of gbn news etc
it was remember all the headlines about vat on private school fees and how everyone said it was stupid.
remember the other week when they said oh we have managed to get x number of new teachers well they did bugger all it takes 4 years to become a teacher. remember when they said we have got x number of teaching assistants??? no you have x number of people that have done a 2 week swap course. do you really want someone that has done a 2 week course helping teach your child. not been tested on maths or english skills let alone any other subject
Woahhh there …We were doing fine unti then.
I won’t ask you to back it up, let’s save 3 pages of to and fro arguing, as it will achieve nothing.
What about crime law and order and policing of such?
That is front page news regular, but nothing changes, on the contrary unless you believe the loaded and purposely biased stats of such.
No answer to my ''Flippancy and Sarcasm v Being entirely serious query I notice …(or the olive branch or continued feud options as I would call it.)
So it seems now our Nationall Union Flag is considered ‘‘offensive’’ by these Liberal f/wit clowns.
A girl who proudly wore Union Flag dress is ‘‘put into isolation’’ for it,…AND at a fete celebrating British culture.
Maybe if she had rocked up wearing a full face burkah looking through a letterbox she would have been pushed to the front for ‘celebrating diversity’.
This country is on it’s arse, we need strong no 'bs type leaders in charge of it to sort the whole Liberal Lefty cluster ■■■■ out …someone the likes of Trump.
we need boris as pm as he is good at making tough decisions trump for the home office and farage as foreign minister. the country would be back on its feet in about 3 months
It’s the only the start of this nonsense, the word of Christmas will probably be banned as offensive one day as Christmas markets are now called Winter Festivals.
it already is when is the last time you saw traditional christmas decorations up. now the lights go up earlier for the festival of light or what ever it is
Coop, funny you say that,last Christmas I noticed all the streets where I lived had no decorations or trees.
Years ago there definitely were more lights, and people really went for it, people would stop and stare.
So being dressed in a Nigerian traditional outfit at the school was acceptable but the pupil dressed in a flat cap as a farmer and chequered shirt was cancelled, what a country this is.
Obviously someone at the school made a stupid decision.
The school have spoken to the family and asked the girl to return and make the speech she wrote. They have “offered sincere and unreserved apologies”, and is “reviewing staff training”.
Hopefully whoever refused her entry will be suitably dealt with.
Yeah tbf I did hear that.
But do you think anything would have been done if it had not reached the national news?
It would just have been looked at as ‘normal’ if not, and the ssme tyoe of crap in that school would have carried on.
These sort of people are well known for all this t b/s…''must not offend." …offend who exactly?
9 times out of 10 nobody is offended, just the clowns who perprtrate this b/s who are offended by proxy…just in case.
I’ve had this conversation with the Dad and his young lads at my Indian restaurant…they send me Xmas cards ffs and invite regilulars for an ‘‘Indian Christmas dinner’’…(that maybe tells me I go there too often on refllection😃)
Nigel (my hero) Farage says..
‘‘These type of people hate anything British and our history’’
I tend to disagree these people are lefty ‘‘do gooders’’ who are just carrying things a bit far because they feel a need to be sen to do it.
..
It was discussed on GBN this morning, a guy referred to an Easter Bonnet parade for litle girls had been cancelled for the same reasons last year.
