  1. And there are already laws to deal with hate, violence and public disorder. They’ve been on the books for years, centuries even.
  2. The right to hold and express views contrary to the Government’s policies is part of democracy. This Government has legislated against rights to protest and is openly discussing doing so again.
  3. My goodness, your imagination has got the better of you. Just a quick question, did I post anything at all on the matter, or are you simply inventing views I have not myself expressed?
  4. Listen up. To draw any meaningful conclusion from data, the data sets must be compatible. A 5% participation rate v 21% and 59% is clearly not comparable. Students elect to sit SATs therefore the data isn’t even random.
  5. Update: I hired a car from AVIS at Heathrow, I made the booking online from Thailand. 1. The rate was cheaper using the Thai AVIS website than the UK AVIS website or the AVIS App. 2. The website booking asked for credit card details but did not charge my card. 3. The website asked for my Driving License details, I gave my Thai license info. Here’s were it got interesting: When I arrived at the car rental at LHR the staff asked for my passport Drivers License and Credit Card. A few minutes into the process he said, this isn’t your license. The name on the license, which I had never checked, was my given names, first and middle names, but not my family name. He asked if I had my own nationality Drivers License with me, I did not. I pointed out my DL had my passport details and he could check the match. He did and processed my hire as normal. HOWEVER, he also found my booking history, so maybe that helped. Either way, another successful car hire from AVIS at LHR.
  6. Agree. He’ll do absolutely nothing for his constituents.
  7. What’s that a ‘FOX News’ machine gun? Or is it FOX News stoking grievances again?
  8. Yes I do understand data. 5% participation in Tennessee 21% in California and 59% in NY. Data sets that are nowhere near comparable. That fewer students choose to take the test means nothing. Righty-o.
  9. Is that you looking for more off topic self stoked grievances?
  10. Once again you make claims without any back up (known as unsubstantiated claims) then expect others to disprove the claims you yourself can’t prove. It’s probably why it’s so easy to get you to believe garbage.
  11. Extraordinary claims are need of extraordinary evidence. My punt, you don’t have any.
  12. Better the Supreme Court consider Trump’s claim to a blanket immunity now rather than after his criminal trials.
  13. Tennessee 5% SAT participation. Do you think this might be the five percent who hope to do well? Overall educational attainment is a far better metric, Tennessee … erm. Even without the high numbers of immigrant students that California and NY school, Tennessee struggles. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings/education/higher-education/educational-attainment
  14. In Sunak’s latest statement he calls out all extremism, including that from the far right. That’s not going to go down well with the extremists in his own party.
  15. No, I’m not a teacher, but I do understand data, which is why I asked you for both SAT scores and student participation. Refer to the interactive map in your link. Tennessee’s score is based on a rate of 5% student participation, not so that of California or NY.
  16. Simply responding to Jonny’s off topic gaslighting.
  17. Typical response from someone who makes unsubstantiated claims.
  18. You claimed but you never provided any backup link. I look forward to scores AND percentage of students sitting the tests.
  19. The people ‘pushing this’ are the rightwing. Create an outrage and reap the votes.
