But it's still "our" fault if the replacement candidates are no better. Who else is to blame in a free and fair democracy?

And sure in the EU most countries are controlled and take orders from Brussels. Whoever is voted in takes orders from the WEF and the unelected Ursula von de whoever she is. Democracy is a sham. Western politicians dream of thier countries being like Russia and China and they got their dream come true during the last couple of years. Bs from start to finish. No one in the EU takes orders from Brussels. Certain shared responsibilities are delegated to Brussels. No one takes orders from the WEF or the EU President. The WEF is an exchange of ideas about common problems and an attempt to coordinate strategies to overcome them. No one wants to be either like Russia or China. Excepting those who admire authoritarianism.

Untrue. The teachers teach what the curriculum requires them to teach. If they don’t that’s a failure of management and if we don’t have effective management that’s our failure. I recall a teacher from Brighton, on the radio, saying that if her pupils grew up to vote Tory, then the education system had failed.

The left infect teaching with their activism. A real teacher is one whose politics their students aren't aware of....not this 'you're a good person if you think this' b0llocks that 'teachers' like that do. It seems the culture of keeping politics out of the classroom is almost an old fashioned concept now.....like most standards.

It’s our decision. Not yours nor mine. Ours. It certainly isn’t for you decide that something “clearly isn’t”! That’s arrogant nonsense. You vote, just as I and everyone does. Absolute tosh! Liberal thinking is pushed into the education process without your or my input or consent. I must have missed the referendum on whether children can identify as whatever they want and everybody else has to encourage the situation by not explaining to the child that they aren’t a cat , or whatever.
hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing. |

As we only have your word for that and time can muddle memory, as well as there being a lack of context alongside your undoubted bias, perhaps we should be cautious before jumping to conclusions. Anyone saying something like that risks disciplinary action. It might be how they personally feel but making it public is stupid. They must do their job in a professional way.

What on earth do you think the WEF has to do with lockdowns? They were not involved in the implementation of a Covid strategy anywhere. It’s simply not part of their role. Just because an idiot somewhere has posted a stupid meme suggesting they were means nothing other than there are idiots on the internet.

It’s not for you to decide what is “tosh” either! You have exactly the same opportunities to voice your beliefs as everyone else. If “liberal thinking” is indeed part of the education process then it is for the very good reason that it is what the Ministry of Education has decided is appropriate. Who decides what they believe is appropriate? Our representatives do! Who chooses them? We do. Not you. We don’t govern by referendum. A referendum is how we ended up making the most stupid political decision of my lifetime.
