Of course she's brilliant and working with her is the greatest blessing a scruffy music teacher like me could dream of. But Lucy is what happens when you make instrumental tuition available to disadvantaged children. Help us to get this message across to those who decide.

Horrified by Israel’s attack on Nasser hospital. Civilians, healthcare workers and journalists must be protected. We need an immediate ceasefire.

@michael_merrick Yes, like the Palestinian Christians being murdered by the Israeli state, which is a very close ally and economic partner of our government (i.e. the British one) against which, as British voters, we protest.

@michael_merrick It makes me think that ordinary people think that we should withdraw economic support from a state which is dedicating itself to the genocide of the Palestinian people. I agree with such people.

Whatever it is - bans or boycotts - it's only ever Israel, isn't it? Never China, or Syria, or Sudan, or Iran, or Afghanistan, or several other places you could choose from. Only ever Israel. Makes you think.
Leyla Hamed@leylahamed

UEFA and FIFA have the power to punish the member association who is currently committing these crimes they are ‘talking’ about. But as long as they refuse to ban Israel, they continue to be complicit in the ongoing genocide against Palestinians.

@michael_merrick In my experience, a police officer would probably judge this to warrant an A.S.B.O..

Helpful to know so many politicians don't think someone walking up to my church, shouting obscenities and burning a Bible should be considered a public order offence.
Michael Merrick@michael_merrick

OK I'll be the one to say it: if someone walked up to our church and burned a bible I'd be happy for that to be considered a public order offence too. I don't see why religious people should have to endure the calculated provocations of the irreligious or obnoxious

@michael_merrick As this is in a Telegraph headline, it probably isn't true. However, surely the idea of studying the relationships between different communities around the known world in the early middle ages is a fascinating one, especially for us Catholics.

@amwilson_opera @jessicaelgot Surely it is not good to make the sustainability of one's children's education dependent on the consistency of one's income. A state school will endeavour to meet a child's needs, whatever the ups and downs of the parents' finances (except, sadly, in instrumental tuition).

@jessicaelgot And many children will be disrupted and upset by being wrenched away from friends and an environment that suited their needs whatever the local alternatives. Since this has become a class war issue some will face bullying for moving from a so-called posh school. Grim.

@amwilson_opera When I was an undergraduate at Cambridge, I sometimes used to go to other people's lectures instead because they sometimes seemed more interesting than the ones on my course (music). ASNaC was especially fascinating.

The solution for the academics is simple. 1) Make attendance compulsory (it was when I was at university) or at least very much expected. 2) Don't put slides online, or at least not ones containing much substance, and definitely don't put up videos. Then nobody will come!

@LeeAndersonMP_ Lee, as someone representing a lot of people in parliament, you probably ought to know that being vegetarian isn't to do with seeing meat, but rather about eating meat.

@michael_merrick The riches of British culture and tradition are consistently denigrated and undermined by our national and regional institutions. This is partly why some find it so difficult to accommodate communities confident and wealthy in their traditions, languages and living culture.

tbf 'shaking people's sense of belonging' is a good description of what people have been complaining about relation to mass immigration, but they didn't get a terribly sympathetic ear for their own moving, deeply personal accounts
Mike Galsworthy@mikegalsworthy

“I woke up with a sense of dread…” A moving, deeply personal account from an EU citizen in Cambridge on how Labour’s new rhetoric is shaking people’s sense of belonging. Don’t miss this powerful open letter. 👇 eastangliabylines.co.uk/lifestyle/comm…

@amwilson_opera But what you describe in your comment, which you think is laughable, is good values. If that's politicisation, then, yes, let's politicise our children. (I do understand that you don't like this book, which I can't comment on, because this is the first I've heard of it.)

@daniel_bath Being a caring person, great - clearly that's an unarguable good. But this book is absurd. A tiny baby cannot be an activist and I think it's completely wrong for parents to attempt to politicise their children. Teach them good values but let them be children.

I often worry about children's publishing being used to indoctrinate, but this takes the biscuit. It is a board book, of the sort you would read to a child of no more than six months old, nine at most. The slogan on the back says it all. Start them early...

@amwilson_opera We are Roman Catholic family. We have always brought up our children from birth to do exactly what you write in this comment, because that is our tradition. It's how my parents brought me up and how their parents brought them up. Do you find our ancient tradition laughable?

It tells children who *cannot yet speak* to see the world around them, notice what's unfair, and use their voices to SPEAK UP, and back up their words with ACTIONS. Just laughable.

@amwilson_opera @Ind_Ox_Alliance @KakocratWatchUK @OxfordshireCC When done properly, citizen's assemblies are very carefully selected to be as representative as possible of the population concerned. It's much better than the current system where those with the biggest mouths, sense of entitlement and bank balances get to decide.

@DalrympleWill Of course, all the politician's tributes are likey to be fairly superficial and secular, but Jeremy Corbyn puts it well, I think: x.com/jeremycorbyn/s…
Jeremy Corbyn@jeremycorbyn

Pope Francis dedicated his life to the marginalised, displaced and dispossessed. A rare voice for humanity, he spent his final days on this earth calling for peace. Let his enduring legacy — of empathy, courage and kindness — inspire us to build a more humane world for all.
