Eton has produced 20 PMs. It's based on a lie legitimised by Clarendon Report 1864 (Times' letters of 15.6.23) This privatised their endowments (sounds familiar?), Eton's now worth £560m+ @Melissa_Benn @robertverkaik1 @nickduffell @PiersCross1 @PEPForum @suzannezeedyk @axrenton
Just read "The Unstoppable Rise of Petty Bourgeoisie" by Dan Evans. Strongly recommend to all who want to understand how Thatcher paved way for current neoliberal hegemony. The way back to social democracy won't be easy: 1st understand the sh*t we're in. @joycemcm @dai_alectic
"Perhaps the most profound threat to boarding schools is more fundamental. And that is the idea that to send a child as young as seven or eight away from home is not privilege but brutality" @suzannezeedyk @axrenton @nickduffell @robertverkaik1 @joycemcm economist.com/britain/2023/0…
Good article by relational psychotherapist debunks idea tht Public Schools have essentially changed. Still remove kids from home love, they produce insecure characters who as leaders damage Brit society. @suzannezeedyk @axrenton @robertverkaik1 @PEPForum richardhughestherapy.com/post/time-to-e…

Is this a veiled criticism of privileged boarding school education from the TES? @PEPForum @robertverkaik1 @suzannezeedyk @nickduffell @BeardRichard @Melissa_Benn tes.com/magazine/teach…
The East India Company was born today in 1600. Few corporations in history have had a greater impact. Profits trumped all else. It became a monopolistic, rent seeking conqueror. Politicians were bought, shareholders enjoyed the upside while taxpayers carried the losses.
Predictable, just heard Sarah Montague [aka Lady Brooke] more or less promoting private health on @BBCWorldatOne - "given the pressures on the NHS". No analysis of where such pressures came from. BBC increasingly mouthpiece of neoliberals. What a contrast with @lokiscottishrap

@SimonPartridge @BobHunterMD @RichardJMurphy Westminster's neglect of the old industrial heartlands and rural settlements in Northern England, Wales and Scotland, plus the likes of Cornwall, is criminal. Would devolved regional parliaments and investment banks be better? They couldn't be worse.
"Overmedicalisation is indeed a problem, but not for the reasons Rishi Sunak thinks..." - My letter published in The Guardian today 👇 theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
@SimonPartridge @RichardJMurphy Yes, and the core of the problem is that Holyrood is more like a local authority than a government because it has no currency issue or taxation powers.
"The only mitigatng fact l can think of is that almost all the [sadistic] people who taught me had been through the war. They were acting out their own trauma." Quotng Andrew Motion Soooo many teachers who enthused abt corporal punishmnt in 1950s-1970s will hv been thru the war.

@psychgeist52 I used to hold to the us vs them problem. I think that it is going to be a problem whatever the label or model. The way I conceive of it now is that ND folk and PNT folk need to view human as core 1/
@SimonPartridge @CliveWismayer @joycemcm @NeilMackay Here's a review of an earlier book of ours, which approached this issue. The reviewer felt rather like Clive, but changed his mind.

@SimonPartridge @suzannezeedyk @PEPForum @axrenton @Anne_MarieIrwin Thanks Simon, I was thinking of inviting him on the podcast. It looks really fascinating.
Love this. Such a simple idea executed the right way, and encourages engagement with voters. I'd queue up for this.
In case anyone is confused by what I want. I want the killing and the dying to stop. Now. I want freedom and dignity and peace and security for everyone. And I want to get there as quickly and as effectively as possible. We may disagree on the means. But these are my ends.
Modern products that are shaping babies' brain development. Parents deserve information that helps them evaluate what that means for their family & the way they choose to raise their children.
Scurvy. Scurvy. In 2024. Scurvy is a political choice. @MichaelMarmot @MonashNutrition @DanWuori @SwailesRuth @rickyegan_ @Mr_PaintPots
Sir Michael Marmot @MichaelMarmot stating scurvy increasingly prevalent in UK. Recent publication by @MonashNutrition PHD student Janet Golder determined high prevalence of Vit C deficiency in an Australian acute care facility
@Twinkle571 Lots of babies cry in car seats. Parents know that. But t understndable requiremnt to strap babies into seats doesn't help parents to think abt what t crying reveals or how to help: babies are uncomfortable? lonely? scared? Their stress levels rise. This changes brain developmnt.
@Twinkle571 Here's a post frm @MotherlyMedia that helps parents think abt this. It doesn't talk about brain developmnt, but does talk about babies' feelings. Part of my point is that this info shdn't be left to bloggers. Manufacturers should be obligated to give it. mother.ly/parenting/safe…
