'Often now schools finish at 3pm or 3.30pm and then what can they do?” - Go home, relax, play video games - Interesting ideas but kids need time to relax

Many Tories failed their GCSEs. Kids need to read their textbooks and answer the questions at the end of the chapters. School is useless and only used to socialise with idiots and get indoctrinated.

Interesting the Govt who decided continual assessment was a terrible idea now think just exams are a terrible idea.

Taking exams at the points that they are aren’t the issue. shear scale of content to cover and the lack of vocational options at that point are the issue. Too much focus on knowledge content rather than skills. Too narrow a choice for those seeking a route outside baccalaureate

Interesting take on GCSE exams...

Tory MP slams 'absurd' rule exempting hunters and shooters from rule of sixExclusive: ‘It is apparently in order to assemble in large groups to hunt and to shoot mostly hand-reared birds,' says party grandee Excuse given that it keeps the people running it in a job... what about events and weddings zero difference but one rule for them and another for the rich It's not absurd at all. Outdoors, well spaced sport. More spaced than football and rugby. About the same sort of spacing as the gliding and golf clubs near me etc etc etc Tory MP should be told that the hunters have weapons and not to bother over it.
