You do wonder how Stephens (and he's certainly not the only one) can write the above with such insight and clarity, and then be so hopeless when it comes to Labour/Corbyn.

."Geoff Barton, the general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, urged caution over the findings. “Our message to the DfE, trust boards, governors and inspectors is to avoid leaping to judgment on the basis of these performance tables. They only tell us a limited amount about the true quality of a school,” he said."

I miss people like Tessa Jowell running the country. No prospect, whatever happens, of them doing so again for decades.

I want a government opposed by the Daily Mail and the Morning Star.

How fucking dare you use the very serious matter of cancer care to make your snide little digs?

You are disgusting.

If anyone ever wonders why some of us left, that's the reason, right there. Disgraceful.

I see.

So a post in praise of Tessa Jowell, expressing something I am completely certain she agrees with, is inhumane. I think you're searching for offence to take. Ignorance mistaking itself for virtue.

There is a nice quiet board where everyone agrees with one another, and where no disagreeable different views are ever expressed you can confine yourself to. Walled gardens reinforcing one another's views without challenge are very comfortable places. True conservatives love them.

Indeed, A, you could argue that.

As you know, I prefer not to visit very often because I find the way intelligent and pleasant people here are patronised and insulted on a regular basis by just one poster extremely difficult. It makes me very angry.

Apoplexy is not a good look.

And what constitutes the lie do you think?

It is a deliberately closed forum to prevent dissenting views. I don't look often, but when I do it is page after page of people agreeing that the Tories are evil and Corbyn is great. The tone is set each day by a post from the news reinforcing the group mindset.

Where is the lie?

No, you horrid little plonker, you evidently don't "see".

You cannot be certain about what Tessa Jowell thinks or agrees with.

You demonstrate an "ignorance" that is as repellent as it is unique to you.

I'd be interested to know about this "nice quiet board" you refer to. I post on one that's actually quite noisy, tremendous fun, and mercifully lacking manipulative trolls who know a great deal less about anything they choose to argue with people about.

As Emily would say, "Well, there it is".

I think Hugo is being even more spiteful than usual because his game's up.

Did you see the poll today that showed the NHS is easily more important an issue than the only important issue of our times, as he would say? Progress is on its knees as is One Nation Toryism.

We (don't know who I mean by that!) are being proved "right" in his language and he is being proved "wrong". He knows he's out of touch with everything and he can't even troll effectively on political issues.

So, let's troll on cancer, on peoples' lives. Let's play on the hurt many here have suffered when losing people they love more than anything to cancer.

He has nothing left and may as well leave here IMHO.

Things I am *certain* Tessa Jowell thinks.

1. The Tories are terrible.

2. Corbyn is a disaster.

3. It would be better if people with her views ran things.

How do we know these things.?

Because of the thousands upon thousands of words, in print and spoken, by her expressing those opinions.

This Elizabeth Barrett Browning act ("oh Hugo is soooo offensive") is ridiculous. You've lost the ability to see yourself from outside.
