If you stand in a crowd with people burning shops, with swastikas, doing Nazi salutes, and making monkey chants, you don't get to complain you are being called far right. It's like being in the main stand of a football stadium and being upset people assume you support that team.

Yaxley-Lennon claims he has travelled overseas in search of a safe location for his family. He's complaining that the actions of others are now compromising that safety. Someone let Alanis Morissette know we've got a new verse for her...

This is what I am talking about when I mention selective comprehensive schools. Would you send your SEN child to a school that devotes 28 words to SEN and four times that on "Most Able"? Schools like this are not comprehensive.

Phenomenally privileged to have been able to watch a loggerhead turtle laying its eggs and building its nest. Once in a lifetime opportunity. Review from my youngest on watching the eggs being laid: "That's gross and disgusting. It's making me feel sick." The beauty of nature

Arrrrgggghhhh! We literally learned to understand rain through meteorology - which has helped us stay dry. Allowed us to be proactive rather than reactive with weather. Even the gotcha analogy underlines the importance of understanding over management.
