That is how you welcome and treat a friend and ally under threat and fighting for their very existence. Well done @Keir_Starmer and the British people - enjoy your visit with the King @ZelenskyyUa 🇺🇦🇬🇧

Wednesday night @TowerHamletsNow Councillors will be making one of the most dangerous planning decisions I have seen in 15 years It's for the carpark, football pitches, and office space at 1 Selsdon Way, Crossharbour next to ASDA The developers want to knock it down & build 1/

@O2 @DUALIPA Do you think I could get some help with my ignored complaint first?

It's showtime. O2 customers can get Priority Tickets for @DUALIPA’s Radical Optimism tour at Wembley Stadium from Wednesday 10 July, 48 hours before general release. Be ready. Register on the Priority app today.

Do you answer complaints via email @O2? Email and phone calls, promised an email back and a call back - nothing, now I’m getting texts to say sorry to see you go 🙈

The greatest asset of our education system is its educators. This morning, I joined parents and children standing in solidarity with striking staff at Canary Wharf College.

How's that for support! Members are out on strike across Canary Wharf College Trust today demanding an end to unacceptable management style and a start to Burgundy Book and STPCD conditions. Thank you to the parents and @ApsanaBegumMP for coming down and showing support. @NEUnion

@wizzobravo @hharniess Thankfully, majority of staff voted to strike (new leadership have been in place not far over a year). It may be an indication that any bullying or lying that may be going on, will not be tolerated and that if it is going on, parents on the whole I believe, will support staff.

@FetchingDi @hharniess Losing the dressing room can take a very long time. Bullies surround themselves with likeninded people. As regards trustees, no idea, but they aren't sitting on the panels that are replacing governing bodies.

This has very strong similarities. Particularly around the contempt shown for parents. An otherwise supportive, engaged, involved group of people, vilified. Including a rewritten parent code of conduct trying to control the narrative.

@wizzobravo @hharniess Bad leaders exist, that’s just something that has be accepted - eventually they’ll ‘lose the dressing room’. Trustees however, that’s a voluntary position for the good of school and community. Why on earth commit to that position, then ignore concerns from staff and parents?

@FetchingDi @hharniess This is so true. The reason parents can fall out with the leadership of a school is because of high-handed behaviour like this. Parents are partners in the education of a child. Got a difficult parent? Dig deeper. Find a connection on a basic level. Have some of the empathy.

@warwickmansell This is just the tip of the iceberg. CWC has enough issues for a @BBCPanorama series.

New: Chain of free schools faces strike action over 37-point list of concerns put together by National Education Union educationuncovered.co.uk/news/167276/ch… Canary Wharf College Ltd,which runs 2 primaries+ 2ndary, warned about pupil safety,long working hours and staff reportedly left in tears.

Friend works for a large well-known MAT - school is pretty chaotic & behaviour not good. Ofsted were in recently and a whole crowd of additional staff from elsewhere in the MAT were imported for two days! Why are they getting away with this?

@jennylewis79 @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT I don’t know who posted. I imagine they’re quite concerned. Would be great if you could contact me directly - if it’s the trust I’m thinking (which I’m sure it is). I’m having a meeting this evening to try to help bring things together so would really appreciate you contact me.

@FetchingDi @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT Please pass on to the parent that did write it to email Friends with their questions / to clarify their information before taking it as fact and airing on social media. We’re also at the gates at drop off and pick up and at all pta events so they can feel free grab one of us.

@jennylewis79 @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT Yes, please do, DM’s are open. Not my description, too many similarities for it not to be I thought. Thanks Jenny.

@FetchingDi @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT I believe it is given your description, it’s in tower hamlets but I can direct message you the full name.

@jennylewis79 @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT Thanks Jenny, I wonder if we’re both thinking it’s the same trust?

@FetchingDi @AppealsHelp @WhistleblowingT I chair the pta for one of the primaries and work closely with the other pta and I can confirm the PTA comments are completely unfounded and untrue. Complete rubbish.

@MAS653 @schoolequalopps @WhistleblowingT I believe the parent body have contacted the information commission. Thank you.

@FetchingDi @schoolequalopps @WhistleblowingT You must challenge that, I think through the information commission, they can’t refuse except under specific circumstances
