It's one of the most deprived areas in the country. My aunt was a headteacher and moved to a primary school there just over a decade ago. Some kids turned up on their first day at school in nappies, some underfed. One kid - at four years old - had never even been on the ground floor before. They'd been brought home to a high-rise flat and literally never left. Some kids had never been to the seaside before, despite living in Clacton-On-Sea. Parents either weren't working or were on very low pay - or resorting to crime. The teachers were actually being paid really well but performing challengingly - the school was in special measures when my aunt took over and within a year Ofsted's rating was "excellent", until she retired, and a year later it was back down to inadequate because of poor leadership and worsening deprivation in the local area. It continues to baffle me that people will continue to vote for the one party that is the cause every ill they have.

Especially now Farage is standing, we could genuinely be in Canada 1993 territory.

I do love how sassy we’ve become of late.

Announce Potter.

Incredible.

Of Gbeebies viewers.

I'm definitely not old enough to have a Leicester manager who's younger than me. Not having it.

Update:

I don't see how Starmer recovers from this.

She turned the kids against him apparently.

To add, I put Mordor because they’re trying to manoeuvre her as a potential leader after this defeat but her seat isn’t safe - practically nobody’s is. Braverman is indeed dangerous but most people are now aware of that and her incompetence. She may well remain but I don’t think they’re insane enough to make her leader. If she did, I’m sure she wouldn’t last long.

She was 6th. Nearly put Corbyn but that would have been controversial.

My guess is Labour have a 31pt lead. Labour on 49%, Tories on 18%,

Top 5 Tories I want to see lose their seat: Sunak Truss Penny Mordor Mogg Gullis

That's got to be ending up on HIGNFY this week surely

l'm collecting all Conservative promotional material and paraphernalia just for this on July 5th. Does anyone know how I can get it in bulk and for free?

We have the opportunity to wind up all the best people on July 4th.

Watch till the end.

Wow.
