This'll be the Downing Street line before long.

When I did the League of Nations for GCSE, was that activism?

[Watchman]

Yeah, what’s that Oswald Mosley ever done for us?

[Oboogie]

‘LGBT history’, ‘black history’ and ‘women’s history’ are British history. Wanky Darren would know that if he'd paid more attention in history lessons instead of concentrating in under the desk pursuits.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Yep.

They're not part of the curriculum, just something the teacher can dip into as something different if you have the time. Quite why this is "activism", rather than education, God knows.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

That's rather dismissive.
There are programmes of study* where a good teacher can ensure that the story of women, of people of colour, of immigration, of political change are included.

*
 the creation of the Welfare State
 Indian independence and end of Empire
 social, cultural and technological change in post-war British society
 Britain’s place in the world since 1945
 a depth study linked to one of the British areas of study listed above
 a study over time, testing how far sites in their locality reflect aspects of national
history (some sites may predate 1066)

[Tubby Isaacs]

Fair point.

And we all know what Dazza means by British history.

[RedSparrows]

Keep your politics out of education...

...that's our job

[Youngian]

And we all know what Dazza means by British history.

I doubt he means that history before the 1707 Acts of Union shouldn’t be taught. But he’s thick as whale blubber and wouldn’t understand the point.

[Bones McCoy]

And we all know what Dazza means by British history.

Darren's in for a shock.
Just wait till he gets to the "Naah Pooftahs" part.

While flicking through the channels earlier I spotted Toby Young being interviewed by Philip Davies and Esther McVey. He seemed to be getting very angry at the government for placing too many regulations on internet companies. Apparently when the country voted for Brexit they did so because they wanted less regulations not more regulations.

It is rather ironic that Captain Bellend wants less regulations because if the Internet had been better regulated in the past perhaps he wouldn't have posted so many dodgy tweets which ultimately cost him a well paid job in the University sector.

[Andy McDandy]

He wants licence to do whatever he wants, with no blowback. That's all.

Wonder where he gets that idea from?

[Youngian]

You can correctly guess Toby Young’s views on an issue before they happen. ‘I better swot up on epidemiology and virology before forming an opinion on public health measures,’ isn’t his style.

Yup, start with "What would his dad, esteemed Labour peer, social reformer, and academic, Michael Young have probably thought of it?" and then the exact opposite of that will be Tobes' opinion.

His motivation in a nutshell.

And yet he was happy to use his father's influence to get a place at Oxford...

[Spoonman]

Can we file these comments as "incitement to murder"? Imagine the outcry & demands for arrest and charges from just KGB News alone if the same was called for Johnson, Pattel etc?

WARNING: Contains David Mellor & Eamonn Holmes.

[Youngian]

Has Mellor been partying late?

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Has Mellor been partying late?

He's always looked like that...

[Bones McCoy]

He's always looked like that...

Or "At least he's kept his looks".
