Remember when those of us who warned of health apartheid - a two-tiered society of the jabbed & in-jabbed - were dismissed as loons?It’s happening

I don’t remember that but you are a fucking loon.

I remember the spectacularly crass phrase, sadly.

It's not "health" though, is it? It's not saying "sorry, you're disabled, can't come in". It's saying "you're most likely perfectly healthy, but we don't fancy running around you because you can't get a vaccine like most other people".

Reading between the lines, he sounds like a sex case waiting to happen. For fuck's sake, Thomas Hamilton of Dunblane infamy ran "boys clubs", you could call him an educationalist too. In fact, I think that an educationalist is someone qualified to go on the Jeremy Whine show and complain that kids aren't being caned any more.

Also, Hartpury is an agricultural college. Bear that in mind.

Hartpury is near here. It's been a university for quite a while, but it's recognizably a place that used to be an agricultural college. It's not like you rock up there to do woke studies, despite the impression some people BTL have.

Hilton's educationalist status is being a pal of Gove and being an ex-teacher/administrator. I thought people who did administration in education were supposed to be part of the problem?

"When you combine @Nigel_Farage's interrogative eloquence with @afneil's decades of experience, intelligence and wisdom"

The equivalent of The Manchester Evening News asking Sir Alex Ferguson to talk the viewers through his trophy cabinet

Not like Fox News.

Among killer arguments from Calvin Robinson is that Yale is a better university than Reading.

Two for one memes here. Get rid of diversity officers and bring back matron.

Given that there are laws about this sort of thing, it's probably a good idea to have people who know about it. I'm sure it'll be cheaper to sack all these people and then have to fight a load more lawsuits, won't it?

As someone who just had a nightmare of a hospital stay after major surgery, due to staff with scant knowledge about mental health issues, I would personally like five minutes alone with this twonk.

Calvin is exactly the guy to tell us about meritocracy.

Turning Point UK, Policy Exchange, GB News. Rigorous assessment for all those. You just get on there by being able to impress rich rightwingers with Kipper guff.

Tried teaching, found it too tough, blamed politics. Hmmm.

There are a few of those. Funny thing is he at the school that had been run until recently by "superhead" Jo Shuter (who fell from grace when it was revealed she'd charged the school for her birthday party). I'm guessing that wasn't a hotbed of leftism.

You'll never guess which celebrity rightwing headteacher made Calvin a director/governor after he'd given up teaching.

These "Superheads" seem to be JFDI managerial types who are great as long as the momentum is with them, but crumble when they meet actual problems. Funny, that.

Yeah, it's like football. String a couple of promotions together, into the premier league, hold a couple of the big boys to draws. Then get found out, relegated, sacked after a poor start in the Championship.

A bit like cabinets who are superstars till there's a pandemic and a military reverse, eh!

Wow, who could have seen this coming? More heavyweight analysis.

This is just what they promised. Real news, getting out of London. When does the BBC ever do that? Apart from every day, when it has a dedicated regional news programme everywhere.

But what a scoop. Public transport in Yorkshire not very good. It's of course brilliant in other parts of the UK. I wasn't the biggest fan of Jez, but he'd have got more buses running in Dewsbury. Maybe they could ask Rees Mogg or whichever Kipper Tory they have on next about this.

Be fair, Mark Dolan has dedicated his life to fighting poverty. He's not just pulling it out of his arse now because he doesn't like Covid lockdowns.

Who are "the left" advocating more lockdowns anyway? Not all that many scientists are.

Yebbut accuse a nebulous "Left" and it absolves your team of any responsibility.

Let's review the Government's three step response.
* Weren't prepared.
* Reacted late.
* Chased the money.

"Northern Ireland was sacrificed", says person who accepted a peerage of the person who "sacrificed" it.

Great caption too. "Northern Ireland MP". Absolutely basic stuff.
