Important evidence, suggesting that socioeconomic background is the primary driver of GCSE results
Which is also the primary driver of participation in higher education, and a primary driver of wages later in life
Class remains a key driver of social, economic and also health outcomes in Britain
I am so bored of everything to do with echo chambers
I don’t want to hear opinions I agree with - I want to be able to learn from others, disagree, agree, be challenged.
Yet somewhere we agree on the basics of respect, evidence, equity
What is the word for that? Chatter pit? Opinion cave?
Thank you Johnny, a thoughtful considered response as expected. For what it’s worth I think the priority point is the crux of it. The ‘public’ are just not an audience HEP’s have the resource to persuade. Creating local allies/advocates by doing all the things you described will serve them well
I really do appreciate the commitment to punctuation on these Tory signs, not sure you get colons on SWP ones
I, of course, agree with you Johnny - out of interest, why you think Unis struggle to articulate that message to the wider public and moreover their localities?
Now wondering if it’s too early for Maria? 🧑🏼🎄
It’s snowing in Hitchin ☃️ I’m reliably informed by the 4 year old that means Santa is now getting ready to come see us. 🎅🏼
I continued to be amazing as to how David Beckham’s brand is so strong while at the same time flogging 10’s of different products. There is nothing the man won’t sell (stella, air fryers, walkers crisps, H&M, supplements is not even the half of it) yet he simply is never seen as a sell out
BRING BACK GOOD, OLE-FASHIONED, STRONG, WELL THOUGHT, EDUCATED & NUANCED OPINIONS 🙇🏾♀️

*fun fact I’ve never been to a MSP gig I have only seen them on a mixed bill or as support (and I was usually stood near to the most committed out of tune singer alonger of Motorcycle Emptiness)
I am relying on you just as much.
I hope in 2 months time we drop all other forms of communication (inc face to face) and we only communicate here
Hi bluesky 👋🏼 What we thinking?
