They’ve infringed his free speech by daring not to be present. Or something.

They’re like an elephant in a tree.

I actually don’t know if I did. Maybe I didn’t.

Some people really hate any criticism of their idols.

Stuart Lock @stulock.bsky.social · 5d

No, no, no. There are lots of “we love Taylor singing “I miss the beautiful flower” stuff” places on the inter web to discuss this. This thread is to judge you for doing so, not for actually doing so.

Is this a Taylor Swift lyric? How profound.

Why would you bother going to this when I thoroughly explored it in my blog about what we can learn from Gareth Southgate?

For what it’s worth the only person I’ve seen call a school or trust out is Paul Tarn.

I’ve seen lots of people say that their rival schools do it but won’t name them.

Are we calling them out or are we just throwing shade at all schools that aren’t ours?

Stuart Lock @stulock.bsky.social · 9d

I agree @jonnyuttley.bsky.social - if you know it’s happening say where and by who.

The only person I’ve ever seen call out specific schools is Paul Tarn.

If we spend years saying “some schools” are doing it without naming them we are just casting suspicion on everyone.

I have two tickets (circle, row 1) to Sigur Ros and the London Contemporary Orchestra on 1st October at the Royal Albert Hall.

We can no longer make it due to work commitments.

They were £75 each plus booking fee but will let them go for whatever you can afford.

Oh goodness thank heavens. Someone whose opinion I rate goes on about him but I’ve enjoyed none of his novels and persisted. Thought it was me.

I think if government and the opposition weren’t on there I’d leave.

Stuart Lock @stulock.bsky.social · 18d

I stay because if I say something about education, I have a few influential people who take notice/ reach out about it including in government and opposition - I’ve had tweets quoted in Parliament this year. I don’t think that can happen anywhere else.

I'm completely flummoxed here. Now you're arguing something different that I am 100% sure you know is spurious. I'm not sure why, but it's a weird aspect of some social media discourse I've chosen to avoid, so I'll leave you to your very strange point scoring and so on.
