The National Service plan gets worse and worse and worse. More detail from the Telegraph below... It's hard to imagine how the idea could be executed more poorly. It seems designed to ruin young lives at the critical juncture of childhood and adulthood. archive.ph/Ol5D6

Here's another for you @SuellaBraverman. 18 year old boy from Enfield. His Mum dies and he has no family. He ends up homeless living in a shed. He gets my contact details and I help him. I put him in the Travelodge on the A10 for 2 weeks until I can find him a room in a housing association. I knew the staff so this was possible. He was scared, cold, wet, and starving when I picked him up. He cried for hours. Anyhow we looked after him and now he's doing a degree in engineering. It was not a lifestyle choice for him. And I'm sure he'd be more than happy to educate you on this.

Word of the day is ‘snerdle’ (18th century dialect): to wrap up cosily beneath the covers and hold off the day for a little longer.

2 years of the doctorate completed, one more to go 🥂✨
