Join us on Saturday 27th September at 10am for a free, energising morning with like-minded women in education. We’ll explore how to thrive intentionally, nurture purposeful friendships, practise self-care, and protect against burnout. 💜 www.eventbrite.com/e/womened-sc...

Labour have made life better for all the working people* * unless you pay energy bills, have a disability, employ anyone, work in oil and gas, claim universal credit, buy food, were born in another country, or run a small business

I’m not worried about illegal immigration. I’m worried about you paving the way to a far-right government because you’re useless, weak, cowardly, cruel and stupid. We need rid of this trash-bag of a man as Prime Minister

So we’re getting a digital ID to go along with facial recognition, and the CCTV that’s everywhere. Can anyone live their lives without state surveillance?

Almost 40% of “Prevent” referrals to counter‑terrorism police are CHILDREN between 11 and 15 years old. Nearly HALF are Muslim or Asian. Beyond exam pressure & teenage angst, a generation is growing up under surveillance because of the “Prevent” duty. Act now: amn.st/63324AbAd6

EXACTLY THIS

No one will stop comparing ICE to the Gestapo until they stop acting like the Gestapo

Hugo’s Ekitaken his shirt off. And now he’s off too.

Welcome to Maths Week Scotland! Every day this week we will be posting mini-challenges related to statistics and biology that you can try - if you like them, you can find our #StatsinTheWild materials here: rss.org.uk/resources/ed... Here is Tuesday's #StatsInTheWild Challenge! #MathsWeekScot

In olden times: “Every ounce of my energy has been devoted to an active opposition to cruel bigotry, compulsive violence, and the sadistic persecution which has characterised the philosophy and practice of fascism... nothing fruitful or sincere could ever emerge from association between us."

Asylum saves lives. No one should be sent back to a place where they are in danger. Those fleeing war and persecution deserve safety—and when safe options exist, traffickers lose power. #UNGA

Oh no, nobody could've seen this coming. It all happened so fast 🤡 🌍

Autistic folks are _heavily_ represented in STEM fields, so it would be far more accurate to say: Autism causes vaccines.

It's so strange to me how the absolutely core question at the heart of politics - "what kind of society do we want to live in?" - is so absent from discussion, either assumed settled or reduced to meaningless generalities.

They're called the 'far right' because they want to take your rights far away.

Some of us warned about this… 20 years ago. robfmac.com/2015/08/06/e...

I've spent much of today reading Peter Ross's brilliant new book Upon a White Horse which is about ancient landscapes and monuments. It is, as always, full of poetry, not only in the sense of lyrical language, of which there is plenty, but in the way he conjures up images from tiny/

You could blame a lack of entrepreneurship upon a lack of finance; too easy opportunities for rent-seeking or rentiership instead; high utility bills; etc. But no, Labour always has to punch down instead. www.lbc.co.uk/article/brit...

A warm welcome to new @tesmagazine.bsky.social reporter @jabedahmed.bsky.social!

That was fun.

Finally set on returning to the UK classroom: either primary KS2 or Secondary English. Don't put me off, but do get in touch if you'd like to add some tittering to your staffroom. Please RT.

Marvellous, bloody marvellous. #LFC

I’m listening to the game on the LFC website. The Spanish commentators in the background sound like Minions.

#UKEd #EduSky Researcher, Terry Pearson, has just responded to one of my morning's tweets on X, with this astounding admission about the SoL. Print this off and stick up on your office wall.

Tenants lager cans recalled...

In 2024, 1.6M refugees returned home. For millions more, violence keeps that dream out of reach 💔 #WithRefugees

Just got a D trip fundraising email “from” Hakeem Jeffries asking for money to stand up to Trump. Hard to believe he’ll stand up to Trump when he won’t even stand up to AIPAC and support a candidate NYC Dems have overwhelmingly said is their chosen nominee.

Style lessons from Robert Redford, one of the most stylish men in the last century. 🧵

So many slide decks, so much mess, so much ugliness.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Looks like Mr Potato Head.

No. You say you were whatever you like but you are racists.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FUCKING INSANE!!! Karen said nothing wrong. Nothing even controversial. Fuck you, WaPo. We won’t forget. I only wish I could cancel my subscription a thousand more times.

Lovely stuff.

It’s almost like there’s a pattern we should watch for more carefully.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

Members of our team were at the GGEC rally in Edinburgh today. We stand in solidarity with Palestinians. We denounce the scholasticide in Gaza - the killing of learning. We uphold the UNCRC and social justice as educators and reject neutrality in the face of such gross injustice.

Hi new followers— I'm a historian of far-right extremism, writing a book about German & American neo-Nazis. I also wrote a book about Turkish-German migration, which you can download free (tinyurl.com/kahnbk) or buy from Cambridge w/ discount FTHL2024. I also research queer fascism & gay neo-Nazis.

Is there anyone going to be travelling back to Fife after the Newcastle Barcelona match on Thursday? I can get to the game but it seems impossible to return afterwards.

Why are so many of the people bemoaning the traditional media’s excessive coverage of someone, posting loads on social media about that same person? Meanwhile there’s a genocide in Palestine and a humanitarian crisis in Sudan.

We stand in solidarity with people seeking safety and against acts of violence and intimidation taking place in parts of the country. Times are tough but people fleeing war and persecution are not to blame for Scotland’s problems. Everyone deserves to be safe and feel like they belong.
