I'm so TIRED of this country... :(

I have no doubt the vast majority of our country stand with Mina Smallman in her quest for justice. Love, compassion and solidarity. pic.twitter.com/cj0063muWM

how is this even enforceable? are any exemptions being made for vulnerable children or kids with vulnerable people in their households? I hope parents are getting organised. pic.twitter.com/LSezE77ipV

This should be extremely concerning. The professionalism and expertise of the Civil Service is one of the few stabilising factors in Britain’s democracy. This is a radical govt, one determined to sweep away any traditional bulwark against unaccountability it encounters. /1 https://t.co/ER4TyTLNHY

Here, have a Pet Shop Boys video. Footage: Soviet Russia in Color (1945-47)

Although today's art is bright and beautiful. “Unwoven Light” by Korean artist Soo Sunny Park who creates large sculptural installations using glass, wire and light (x).

Like the person who wrote that tweet said I hope people are getting organized to fight that rule about mandating kids to go back to school. That's ridiculous!

I just couldn't believe it! (OK, that's not true, I can totally believe it.)

And then they'll do a U-turn, because they always default to the worst possible option and then have to be pressurised into doing the decent thing and it's SO MUCH WORK.

And I'm on the very edges of things and highly privileged. :(
