Please don't say that, I'm in hospital right now, and happy to note the staff are better than we deserve. Two things I have learned: I) Shouting ' Get your hands off me, you black bastard' does not assure preferential service and II) Catheters are the work of the devil, and I wish them to every Tory.

Just wait til they pull it out...

On the subject of racism I'd just like to share an anecdote. Was supply teaching today - year 11 computing. Notice a kid has a badge on. Eagle shaped. Innocent me thinks it's the double headed eagle of the Imperium of Man. It only had one head though. Now I'm a history teacher so after close inspection could clearly see it was a Reichsadler. Kid doesn't really explain but at the end of the lesson pops up and hands me a leaflet... British Fascist Party or something like that. Holy gently caress.

Needless to say - straight to PREVENT.This poo poo is in our schools.

On the 'white schools' thing, aren't working class white boys still the worst performers in education other than travellers? Does that make the 'white' schools perform worse? That seems to be the case with school rankings within Leicester, but most of those are catchment area schools and not ones that parents get to select.

Are there any studies about how more segregated school environments affect students?

Not exactly what you want but this might be of interest:

New Labour took lots of their ideology from Giddens - fair enough. It's third way stuff (really though I shouldn't say ideology because third wayism is defined by its lack of ideology).

However it also took influence from Charles Murray. You should look him up. I'm sure the walking, physical embodiment of a PPE degree known as Ronya might have some words about him. He's basically a monster. There's a direct line from him to Reagan, Thatcher and then Blair. He particularity doesn't like single mums or the 'underclass' as he terms it.

Frankly, I'd rather vote for a cock and sickle.

Also there's the whole million dead Iraqis. Yeah, that stretches the perfect being the enemy of good for me.

Those places are ok for a stag weekend but they're hardly long term options!

Still, thanks for visiting and don't let the ferry door fail to close properly on your way out.
