Great Replacement theory is, of course, just a fancy title for They Want Our Women, and its associates, Lock Up Your Daughters and Why Don't Any Girls Like Me?

When I visited my parents on Sunday they had a copy of the Sunday Times and it really is woeful. It looks like Rod Liddle sets the tone for the paper and the other journalists just follow his lead. Liddle wrote an article which basically suggesting that it was pointless cutting inheritance tax because none of the plebs in the red wall seats have enough money to have to worry about the inheritance tax. With his articles these days it is difficult to tell if he is trying really hard to be funny and failing or if he is just a nasty piece of work.

DId the trans people get a week off? That's positive, I suppose.
It did some good investigation on Bozo. I don't know if it's still doing any of that.

We could go with this take, or we could go with "massive cuts".

Blame the div kids. Why can't we just send them off gardening, or in the Sunshine coach* to Glitter Towers?
*Variety Club Sunshine Coaches - when I was a kid there always seemed to be some sort of fundraiser going on to buy these minibuses to take disadvantaged kids off to the seaside or to get molested by some prominent light entertainers. You don't see them around so much, these days.

This is where we need Fozzy.
In actual fact the number of EHCPs has fallen dramatically due to spending cuts. If an EHC Plan is given someone has to find the funds to make it so.
I can't give national chapter and verse but in my LA they have almost vanished.

But I was under the impression that some of the things diagnosed as warrenting SNE e.g. ADHD were made-up conditions (as per the Heil)

The Sunday Times has fingered the guilty men. It's kids with nothing wrong with pushy parents who milk the system for free taxis as part of a "golden ticket".

My grandson has an EHCP.
He also has cerebral palsy, a paralysed arm, a stunted leg and partial vision. He has a delay of at least two years and requires constant emotional support. He has asked for his paralysed arm to be amputated as it 'doesn't help'.
Some fucking golden ticket.
Cunts.

Golden ticket? More like a deli counter ticket. Take one, wait your turn, and pray that the £x million cut in local children's services (the mess we inherited - every council that changed hands in May) doesn't mean you are still waiting years later.

The Times, obligingly, going after the CofE to try and stand up Braverman's rant. As Sunder says, it's less than convincing. But doubtless there will be lots more of this in the future, thanks to Braverman and The Times.

Yeah, I keep hearing that. It's an easier ride than Jez, but not easy by any other definition.
