The issue is CLASS. This focus from Bridget Phillipson misses the scale of the problem. In š¬š§ poverty is the biggest barrier to learning. The gap starts before school and grows. 1/By age 3, children from poorer homes are already ~1 year behind in language and communication skills.
I honestly can't believe this. NottinghamshireLive have just been told we are now banned from interviewing Reform's Notts County Council leader or any of his colleagues. The ban will be lifted for emergencies like flooding or incidents at council-run schools. nottinghampost.com/news/news-opinā¦
I spoke to Peter Bearne for ITV News Central this evening on the unprecedented ban Reform have issued against Nottinghamshire Live. ITV took a stance by giving this item top billing on their Central bulletin, devoting eight minutes to the issue in total. This wonāt go away.
Reform have just issued a fresh statement containing the most concerning thing theyāve said in the NottinghamshireLive ban saga so far. They leave the door open to banning āany other media outletā which they āconsider to be consistently misrepresentingā them. Chilling.
Today, people of all political persuasions, class, race, gender and ability are uniting to show that Tommy Robinsonās (aka Yaxley-Lennon) hate filled rhetoric does not represent true British values. Iām proud to be standing up to racism on Stand Up To Racism with the Womenās Block
