The paper presents some ‘out of the box’ thinking around how homes for children in care could be commissioned differently. It looks at how residential care & foster care operate in separate silos in the U.K and argues that radical reframing is needed.

@donmcgowan @JohnLewisRetail @AudiUK Upset by the flags of this country, I'm more worried about my daughter's safety on our streets, the drugs, and crime generally, plus being able to get a doctor's appointment, a dentist via the NHS and living through a cost of living crisis

Arrived at Cribbs Causeway to see it’s been flagged.
I’m sure @JohnLewisRetail and @AudiUK must be thrilled to be surrounded by cheap, xenophobic, tatty England flags.
It looks terrible and gives the opposite impression of Bristol’s inclusivity.

@RhiRhiOnRugby @jim_demps Who is ‘they’? there are many South Africans wanting a life ban. There is no place for such behaviour. On any team. In any country.
English

@jim_demps The desperate scramble from South Africa to try & justify the most disgusting eye gouge I've seen on a rugby field is just too draining to engage with.
They'd argue the sky is purple & grass is yellow if it suited the Springboks.
English

Way too much nonsense and still pictures out there about Etzebeth getting gouged too and drawing parallels.
If you think this is a gouge then you’d literally want your eyeballs examined.
What Etzebeth did was unwarranted and inexcusable and he deserves to get the max ban

Here’s the full clip from Etzebeth yesterday. He comes into the maul late with a shot to the back of Coghlan. Then drops an elbow to Manns face on the way down In the scuffle he gouges Mann with his right hand but goes for a second gouge with his left hand Absolute scumbag

Springbok Eben Etzebeth received a straight red card late in the match against Wales after gouging the eyes of flanker Alex Mann 🏉
What are your opinions? How long do you think he will be suspended?

@scrumming_ten no longer. He deserve a life ban for what he did in the Wales game.

@DoublelocksPub Yet you have a huge firework display right by their home every single year which has killed some with shock in the past. Not to mention the fact you’re surrounded by wildlife and having veterans with ptsd living nearby! 😡

@FrankJJake @oelma__ Why do you assume a blind person is going to be frail? Have you never watched the paralympics?
English

@oelma__ What a ridiculous question. It’s a service dog. Its job is to enable people to access the community. The answer is obvious.

@PeterWanless It was an epic night. What a tense last over! We took a fab picture of that incredible man in the moon watching over it.

@Tripadvisor The changes in your app are awful. It’s now impossible to use and over complicated.

@Kerrie26906158 Less than 30% of these placements in this research could
be attributed to children’s homes. It found that a large part of the problem was the ineffective way in which intervention has been commissioned (for many years).
English

#Privatisation of #ChildrensHomes are a massive issue in high costs for placements that prioritise profits over care, resulting in #CareLeavers with increased trauma. It hemorrhages money from LAs to private companies, only for them to need to pay for the failures during #Care
Local Government Association (LGA)@LGAcomms
The cost of placements for children in care are increasing, causing financial strain on local authorities. Our new research with @ncbtweets explores the drivers of high-cost placements & provides recommendations. Read more: local.gov.uk/publications/c…

@Tripadvisor Myself and many I know don’t use TripAdvisor much any more. Since you’ve changed the design and made it so difficult to search for what you need. It’s too much hassle now sadly.

@currys How do I speak to an actual human ? Without going through your ‘livechat’ function which doesn’t work for me. I need a number to a human please.

@Nicobart1971 @NiallHarbison The fact you even ask this is a concern. Catch poles can be extremely traumatising. If you can use a kinder approach
(as Niall is doing) you should.
English

@NiallHarbison I don't understand why you don't have a catch pole at this point. It's the safest way to restrain, walk and handle dogs without risking getting bit

@Artemisfornow Thanks for the signal boost. We’re gearing up for a proper David and Goliath battle with @CambsCC at a public inquiry — they’ve got public money to bludgeon us with so @CambridgePPF need to raise a fighting fund, anyone able to chip in, here’s the link: app.sheepcrm.com/cambridgeppf/a…
