🧡This is where Youngs Free Speech Union wants to head, the network of Lviving Marxism/Spiked Online culture war groups have provided template letters to send into schools
Heard of some schools starting to get letters asking for them to provide copies of their curriculum to be checked over

Henry Jackson Society sending FOIs into ethnically diverse schools regarding behaviour logs about antisemitism
And social mobility czar is involved in Don't Divide Us which provides template letters and guides on "How to recognise CRT doctrine in schools and how to challenge it"

That's exactly what Heads need right now
So #edutwitter defenders of Birbalsingh, put aside what happens for students in her school and consider how her US style culture war politics undermines educators, how much she has contributed to a narrative that allows DfE to centralise control and reduce autonomy
Don't Divide Us template letter

I think the greatest threat to patients isn't a few days of strikes, its having a libertarian banker as health secretary who doesn't even think we should have infection control on hospitals

Who speaks about endemicity without having a bloody clue what he's talking about
@sajidjavid is literally destroying the workforce

🧡New schools bill: We warned you this is where academisation would lead

Also the attention on attendance is incredibly disingenuous, a narrative reinforced by @ChildrensComm talking about the lost "ghost children" of lockdown

I'll show you why
De Souza has previously claimed 100k children could be missing education,this was originally cited by a report from an opaque free market think tank using DfE data
25% of students missing 10% or more of education

De Souza states this in her latest report
Image
This is being cited as one of the reasons the DfE needs to centralise control of education, that and some culture wars crap to police teaching from whitehall

Claims complex reasons at play and in interviews says she doesn't know the full reasons, but blames lockdowns Image

🧡JCVI Minutes on 5-11 vax
Jan-Feb 2022

It's a mess of assumptions, often made whilst admitting there is no data to back up opinions

Clearly a divide of opinions, contradictory statements, once again natural immunity is oversold

Long covid barely mentioned
2/ 13th Jan
2/ Antibody rates in children

Estimates 34-39% children had antibodies from infection "as expected"

Estimate 6% of the age group were infected EVERY WEEK from start of December up to the meeting

Children's commissioner says she expects schools to endure 100% attendance on first day back in September
After campaigning with UsForThem against measures to cut infection she's scratching her head who so many kids have absences of 7-10 daysπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
Just a reminder that she was CEO at Inspiration Trust that was found to be disproportionately off rolling students, SEND and disadvantaged students impacted disproportionately
Never spoken about long covid, doesn't acknowledge CEV students or students with vulnerable household members

Instead every child with low attendance has been labelled a lockdown "ghost child"

1/5 I think Braverman is one of the worst in the Cabinet as the role of Attorney General is a very different role to other Cabinet positions

She's also fully signed up to culture wars and libertarian capitalism over democracy ideology Image
2/ No suprise to see she's been taking advice from a Trump lawyer
3/ Her answer to most questions appears to be to go off on one about "communists" or "cultural marxists" she'd feel at home in the current Republican Party

They claimed children didn't transmit to get the parents back to work
Now they continue to claim covid doesn't harm children because to do so would mean many ppl admitting they'd advocated harmful policies

Putting self preservation ahead of protecting children

Its disgusting
It's not just the GBD herd immunity crowd
It's also the paediatricians who produced the studies to justify gov policy
The JCVI initially not rolling out child vax was also a disaster

When did "the policy won't kill that many children" become acceptable?
Also the PHE/UKHSA data analysts who at the start of every wave write reassuring threads about cases rising in children but not the over 70s so no cause for alarm with no consideration of the impacts of mass reinfection
