The latest findings from one teaching union found the following https://www.nasuwt.org.uk/article-listing/covid-impacts-on-teacher-mental-health
No other profession had the constant scrutiny and scapegoating from the government and its media chums did it? But the anonymous survey reveals grim reading at a time when people are trying to support each other still.
Then Hunt goes on to tweet some of the most tone deaf and sinister rhetoric aiming this at people.
You couldn’t get hawking the latest populist gimmick more wrong if you tried. |  |

Have it in your own time, not at the expense of a child's education. |
The funny thing is, despite all his views on education, and which kids should and should not be allowed to go hungry/drown in a dinghy, Paz probably isn't allowed within 500ft of any school! |  |

I really don't understand why some righties refuse to acknowledge the reality of our history, and instead prefer to think about these issues in the most simplistic and unsophisticated fashion. |
I also don't understand why people on this conversation who are right-leaning are being labelled as leftist when they simply don't see how the flag enriches a child's education beyond being able to identify it.
Of course, no "rightist" would ever want political bias being taught in school - oh... wait... we seem to have reached the part in the conversation where Paz faces a dilemma. |  |

You really need to get yourself some education. |
Point in case.
I provide plenty of evidence to support my opinions on here, yet I'm still unsure exactly of this "context" you mention when defending racism from Johnson for example.
Do you understand what any of the words you use over 5 letters mean? |  |

He couldn't get any when he was younger. Too much time taken up learning about the British flag and singing the national anthem in assemblies. Some people thought it would improve his prospects and prepare him for life. |
That and being told Bible stories and singing hymns as fact.
It amazes me so many people cling onto their GCSE History education. | |

He's just slinging labels around without really understanding what he's saying. Like a dog who has learnt a few tricks, it might be able to mimic an action, but it doesn't truly comprehend what it's doing.
Paz operates on a very basic level of thinking. Things are either definitely good or definitely bad. What's good and what's bad depend entirely on who is doing it and who it is being done to.
There's no middle ground for Paz, and as we've seen before, when slightly more valuable contributors to the forum try and point out the reality of a situation, his brain goes on the fritz. If I were him, I'd be on to my university asking for a refund. [Post edited 3 Apr 2021 22:38]

I understand.
Largely, it's because they are thick.
Then there's another small minority who benefit from pushing that fake reality to said thickos. like the MP named in the OP.
Which side is Paz on? [Post edited 3 Apr 2021 22:38]

Where have I mentioned the working class here? I myself have a GCSE in History FFS. It has nothing to do with class.

My History GSCE (which may I add was optional the last two years) taught us nowt about the war. So basically, my educational minimum on WWII ended in year 9 at 14.
And yes, it was very much the flag waving simplified version.
Hence why we have such a large chunk of Britain who refuse to accept facts beyond that.
I’m sure flying some Union Jacks outside the school will fix this issue though. | |

You file under whatever fits in your fantasies kiddo.

I made a comment about GSCE level education and what it teaches in history. Also in regards to an in-jest response to Paz's comment about needing an education.
Said GCSE is the same level of education I got in a state school.
So I'm either slagging myself off, or you're being a din. Try winding your neck in and reading what I say at face value because you evidently don't even know what a GCSE is.
Classic Jeera. [Post edited 3 Apr 2021 23:01]

On the immigration point, how does all that square with the post-Brexit decision to allow people to come from Hong Kong to the UK to settle given China's recent moves in the territory?
Estimates are as high as 300,000 over the next 5 years with the actual amount of people who are eligible at just over 5m.
I don't seem to see the same people who were up in arms at EU immigration or desperate people trying to get themselves a better life up in arms about this large potential migration.
Perhaps it could have something to do with this:
"The Home Office has estimated that tax receipts from new arrivals, many likely to work in well-paid sectors, suggest a net benefit to government finances of between £2.4 and £2.9 billion over five years."
Or perhaps the people who had a real issue with immigration previously just haven't cottoned on about it yet.
If the argument is that we don't have the infrastructure to accommodate more people then why isn't that argument being made about the upcoming HK immigration wave?
SB |
I'd be surprised if the lack of outrage from the right over the HK contingent was anything to do with economics. EU migrants were tax positive remember, but that didn't stop the hate campaign. The infrastructure angle is also lame when you consider that positive tax take (I'm fairly sure the EU immigrants not only contributed more, but were less of a drain on services than the average Brit too, on account of them mostly being relatively young, healthy and of working age).
It's more likely to be simply down to (a) them not being from the EU (which means the eurosceptics aren't interested; avoiding something that has been a cancer in our politics for decades) and (b) not black, which stops the out and out racist worrying as much. (edit - the racist angle is probably tiny; far more likely people aren't talking about it because the media and commentators aren't talking about it).
I agree on the point that people with issues about immigration haven't worked out where that comes from; they don't seem to realise the extent to which certain elements of the press, social/media commentators and politicians the like of Farage are are pressing their buttons. Xenophobia and racism have been normalised by politicians and the press - that's simply a fact. [Post edited 3 Apr 2021 23:30]

What a dumb post. That has nothing to do with post you were replying to. Not even close. A straw man of monumental proportions.
But if you're going to bring up vacuous assertions, then I think you're also wrong on that. Most on the left I know don't hate the UK. They hate what it's turned into with the loss of traditional British values, like decency, mutual respect, the rule of law, etc. That's a massive difference. | |

He’s right. Schools should fly the flag and they should do it with pride. |
I think that Hunt is wrong.
As things are, flying the flag is a matter of individual choice. We can choose to display the union flag as a sign of pride or patriotism to mark the Queen's birthday or an historic anniversary, eg we may want to fly it on August 15th to mark the end of WW2. We can be proud that our fathers stood against despotism and prevailed; flying the flag may be a way of marking that victory.
Or we may fly the flag of St George during the World Cup or the Union Flag during the Olympic Games as a gesture of support for our sportsmen and women.
But if it were to become compulsory then it ceases to be a mark of pride or patriotism or support. Instead it becomes a sign of compliance with the regulation.
At the moment we fly it infrequently on special occasions and we notice it. If we fly it all of the time then it will become 'invisible' and meaningless |  |
