Imagine if the UK media spent as much time on pressing for ventilated workplaces as they did foreign holidays...

Government scraps £300m initiative on mental health in primary school

Where are all those ppl who said they cared about student mental health a couple of months ago when they were arguing against mitigations in schools?
schoolsweek.co.uk/mental-health-…
As for the Students have lost X days in schools = y loss of lifetime earnings

Availability of opportunity will have a greater impact, here we have options available being removed

Where are those voices now?
And we just had the national disability strategy announced which fails to address the damage the government has done to peoples lives for years now ImageImage
"Education is a number one priority"

They say as they stealth cut the Pupil Premium for the most disadvantaged by hundreds of millions

And where are all those ppl who claimed they cares about disadvantaged children now?
Whats the gov doing for 4 and 5 year old when they first enter education

Continuing with the roll out of baseline testing for starters, this data point will then be used to measure progress throughout their compulsory education
Charities accuse Government of failing to properly consult as it seeks to rush through children's social care review

Where are the voices?
Incase you are wondering what direction children's social care is heading

Privatisation, and its gaining the interest of the worst kind of investor

But the ppl claiming to care about children aren't going to be drawing attention to this
£20million siphoned out of school budgets and into a MATs central HQ

Toby Young to join House of Lords
Ridiculous, consider the content of his Daily Sceptic which produces a daily diet of climate change denial and antivax stories

I bet he continues to complain about elites and the establishment whilst wearing his ermine
Consider how he set up Free Speech Union after Jordan Peterson and James Or (Edmund Burke Foundation/NatCon) went to Peter Thiel for support who then sent his chief of staff to help set up FSU
And then there is Toby Young’s support for "progressive eugenics" the belief that the rich are rich because they rich are genetically superior while poverty is a result of being genetically inferior Image

🧵The latest Republican Covid Oversight Committe provides a clear picture of the alternative reality that will soon be taking charge of US health institutions

It's worth considering the implications for the FDA when the grifters become gamekeepers
2/ It's hard to know which came first, claiming a cure for covid as a reason for removing all measures, or the grift, likely it depends on the individuals.

Lets look at a timeline of the promotion of alternative treatments that continued to be promoted once proven ineffective
3/ The first example of people producing an alternative treatment protocol that I know of is from the AAPS linked organisation that rebranded as Truth for Health Foundation

This was February 2020 Image

There has been ongoing attacks on the CCDH since they published their disinformation dozen report years ago on the biggest antivax promoters online, this named RFK Jr and others who have been embraced by MAGA appearing at a conveyor belt of conferences
2/ The campaign against CCDH comes from the GBD crowd
3/ Despite their claims they aren't political this crowd and their ecosystem of overlapping groups is very close to the centres of power like Thiel who are driving the modern day Republican Party

🧵 Amazing when RW media decide to care about SEND students

When it comes to VAT on private schools they are suddenly worried about SEND pupils, but they backed austerity, the dismantling of CAHMs real terms cuts to school budgets, and loss of 20,000 support staff mainly TAs
2/ I think it was autumn 2017 we had a protest regarding SEND students being let down over 80,000 educators and SEND parents gathered outside Westminster, it didn't get a single mention in the media from any outlet
3/ 2016 ATL conference motions booklet

Look at the issues we were trying to raise, issues largely ignored, and only raised when suits a narrative
