What the same names again?
Hmm almost like a small group of shit stirrers are mass producing disinformation groups...almost like how campaigns working with Cambridge Analytica operated..
People screaming loudest for Freedom and to return to normal are the ones prolonging this pandemic. The same ppl who shouted loudest for the sovereignty of Parliament are the ones undermining democracy for the agenda of foreign billionaires.
They bought the CRG, coopted Brady the chair of the 1922, Halfon the Education Select chair, bought an APPG, provide evidence to Parliamentry committees, brief MPs and have secret meetings, get praised in Parliament and now have a Bill in progress
And vast majority of the media are either seemingly oblivious or actively supporting the disinformation.
For instance Nawaz and Julia Hartley-Brewer have actually attended a Pandata meeting, as for Lucy Johnson...
This is why the UK Statistics Authority wrote to the Tory Party during the 2019GE to reprimand them for claiming "more students are now in outstanding schools than in 2010"
Also reprimanded over funding claims
4 times I believe #edutwitter
This is how UK politics works, policies are designed to produce metrics that can be lauded at elections, the reality on the ground, the impact on real lives isn't important,they just need a stat they can quote and hide behind in the face of questioning. Policies 4 slogans not ppl
Below inflation increases for education, wages and other services allowed them to claim "more money than ever before" while funding" while in real terms we saw an 8% decrease per pupil, lost 15k support staff, reduction in teaching numbers and workload increases
But they already have this power via the covid bill, they've used it several times, Greenwich and to several schools who tried to break up for half term
So @halfon4harlowMP is doing this just for UsForThem/CRG brownie points
Article then gives a platform to people who have been constantly wrong, including GBDs Livermore, and goes on to try and create concern for 5+ vaccines
Looks like I was right, JCVI mainly only looked at PHE's own studies, the ones they've gaslit us with for over 18 months
Also show an unhealthy number of assumptions with little evidence to back them, and very positive about benefits of infection
One of the presenters providing evidence on harms to children was Ladhani, who used mainly his own studies which concluded transmission isn't a significant issue in schools.
Students do need to be removed from lessons at times, for a large number of students getting taken out for the rest of the lesson and getting a detentention is enough of a deterrent.
But we all know students out all the time, falling further behind, they get stuck in a cycle
We aren't going to see booths or removals banned, no matter how exercised ppl get about it, its not on policy makers radar, we can't even get protections from a virus thats killed hundreds of us.
But booths/removal arent a solution, its a short term fix to keep a lesson going
