A2C - Youth Drama

@BeirneLiz @SuellaBraverman Very sad. Not good for the community, the school or the kids. What's your views on someone teaching your child who rants about your ethnicity online?

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman What is your opinion on him having to go into hiding?

Sacked for telling the truth. I have read the report from the DfE and it is disgraceful. A good teacher has been struck off for holding very normal, common-sense views. Civil servants in Westminster would faint if they met someone from Darlington or Middlesbrough. They are completely detached from reality. I hope Mr Everett appeals and is successful.

@LostTransport @DrDJWilde @SuellaBraverman The "dog" in this case knows about dogs. the "kennels" have a broader view. The "kennel oversight body" makes the final decision. Think I got that right :) Yeah, it's not perfect, but it'd got the right cheks and balances, I think. He's got no chance at appeal, IMO.

@ACT2CAM @DrDJWilde @SuellaBraverman Hmmm... It doesn't strike me as a healthy process tbh. Like why have a dog and bark yourself?

@Hvitabyr @GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Mate, I understand you - I just disagree with you. I've always got on with my Muslim neighbours and colleagues. Our kids grew up together, played in the street together.

@ACT2CAM @GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Bullshit. There’s never been an ‘always’. This change is less than one lifetime. There’s thousands like me. You can call us names or point, but the facts remain. We never asked for this. We don’t want it. We will vote to reverse it.

@Hvitabyr @GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman I'm not an immigrant, mate.

@ACT2CAM @GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Immigrant supports immigrant. It bothers me that my hometown has been demographically terraformed without consent. I’ve a dozen horrendous stories to counter you. This is England. Not Africa. Not Afghanistan. We never voted for this. It balkanises & will end in conflict.

@LostTransport @DrDJWilde @SuellaBraverman The panel is advisory in the prohibition stage, and the Secretary of State's role is statutory. Teacher has the right of sppeal, still. High court, etc.

@ACT2CAM @DrDJWilde @SuellaBraverman It's a bit odd though to overrule a tribunal purely through civil servants oversight. A fair process would be the department appealing the decision

@BeirneLiz @SuellaBraverman We both know, and it's nothing to do with this teacher being sacked, either.

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman Why is a batley teacher in hiding?

@GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Yeah, that's deranged, I totally agree.

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman You simply do NOT get this situation with any other religion. He is STILL in hiding, how is this even possible in 2026? I'm old enough to remember the outcry over the Satanic Verses, it was deranged🤪

@CharlieHowarth1 @MonkEmma @DeathlyAcorn @WasAcop There is a key distinction between intellectual comprehension and personal faith. An academic grasp of the doctrine of (eg) intercession is nowhere near accepting it as true! Understanding =/= believing!

@ACT2CAM @MonkEmma @DeathlyAcorn @WasAcop I know, but you accept their framing. Quite worrying if people are now just adopting Islamic frames. If you believe that the Quran is a mystical text that requires imams to interpret it, then why wouldn't you simply accept the whole belief system contained within?

The other events are more festive and performative, while last night's included a formal, obligatory congregational prayer that visually and audibly dominated the space for that brief period. That’s the difference.

@DrDJWilde @LostTransport @SuellaBraverman You're claiming they didn't follow due process, which is a wild assumption, but sure, maybe.

@ACT2CAM @LostTransport @SuellaBraverman TRA, ruledhe wasn't ra ist and should keep his job. So, why would the DfE overrule them? It's clearly political and them wanting control, which is a disgrace. I can see you're a government apologist.

@BielsaAteMyPie @Darlo_Robbo @SuellaBraverman It would be against teaching standards, so they would be investigated and (like here), depending on context, fired.

@ACT2CAM @Darlo_Robbo @SuellaBraverman So for example then, any teacher that states support for the BLM movement, should also be sacked yes?

@GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Yeah, nobody deserves that. But the kids are my priority. The worst thing is how it becomes a political football, and the protests organised largely from outside the community.

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman I have only sympathy for the teacher & family. It's absolutely shocking and unacceptable. He wasn't a crazy activist trying to make a statement. All those men who complained should be deported Immediately. They are hardly integrating, suspect most are on benefits/social housing

@GregSmi61359918 @Hvitabyr @SuellaBraverman I used to live on Park road, right next to the mosque. We've always got on. Through steel. Through chemical. Through the devastation that Thatcher brought. The only thing that's changed for the worse is the number of racists bleating on the internet. UTB

@ACT2CAM @Hvitabyr @SuellaBraverman That's great and happy birthday 🎂. But when some see an area completely changed, I guess there might be resentment.

@DrDJWilde @LostTransport @SuellaBraverman The TRA ruled he was not sexist or racist. The DfE ruled he had broken professional standards. Both true.

@ACT2CAM @LostTransport @SuellaBraverman You're talking nonsense. Your 'such a pupil might feel this' - complete fantasy you've just made up to suit your biased argument. He didn't air his views in class, but on his personal X account in his own time. It has nothing to do with duty of care. The TRA ruled in his favour.

@GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman Yes. And sympathy for the school, and the kids.

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman Any sympathy for this teacher? bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

@Hvitabyr @GregSmi61359918 @SuellaBraverman I was on Linthorpe Road last Saturday night. It was absolutely buzzing with cafes, pubs clubs, shops and restaurants. More alive than I've seen it in a long time. Was my brother's 60th birthday party. He's black, does that bother you?

@GregSmi61359918 @ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman African, Islamic. Went down Linthorpe rd recently. It broke my heart.

@skanker112 @SuellaBraverman You are clearly a bot

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman Absolute bullshit. His views are very acceptable.

Top foley

@cmcrypto81 @SuellaBraverman Doesn't mean they were right, but it means they followed due process. You can't have a teacher posting "send them all back" online, when they likely teach immigrant kids. Hold those views all you like, but we have a duty of care to all our students. UTFB

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman Doesn't mean they were right though, the DfE isn't some mysterious all seeing, all knowing entity, it's likely run by doyles too. UTB

@Johnmch02 @SuellaBraverman My apologies, I thought that was addressed to me :) Most schools I've taught at incorporate it, some more than others. Though I understand some don't. Very difficult not to let Jesus' teachings shine through, whether you characterise them as Christian. or not, IMO

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman My response wasn't aimed at you. The question was about daily Christian assemblies in schools. Does you school adhere to this law? Most of the time doesn't cut it.

@cmcrypto81 @SuellaBraverman That's ok, @cmcrypto81, I've been called worse over the years :) However, his views were found by the DfE to be unprofessional and unacceptable, regardless. UTB

@ACT2CAM @SuellaBraverman I'm from Middlesbrough and think you're a complete doyle
