O/T. The Government's handling of Covid

[ramAnag]

To be honest RA deserves a pat on the back, with education madness coming to its peak.
At least he dodged the latest mine field. Bonkers.

Totally off topic, but...I didn’t ‘dodge the minefield’. As far back as thirty years ago Thatcher introduced legislation to stop teachers talking about same *** relationships because it ‘promoted homo***uality’.
It didn’t of course and personally I took no notice. I’ve never ‘promoted homo***uality’...wouldn’t know how, or why you would do that, so I carried on regardless knowing that you can’t teach adolescents about *** education by pretending that same *** relationships don’t exist and shouldn’t be respected.

P.S. Weird people have been getting hot and bothered about such issues for years. Some of them even appear to be frightened of the word ‘***’.

If an employer doesn't pay a PROPER wage from which an employee can afford to house, clothe and feed a family (partner and 2 kids) and also be able to afford a few "luxuries" like a holiday, a car..... that "person" is NOT an employer, they are a modern day slave driver.

If you’re going to make slightly snide comments like that it may be worth pointing out that at least both MA and I can spell ‘naivety’, ...and I haven’t a clue what your previous post is meant to mean.

Not a maths teacher, not an economics teacher and now not an English teacher. What did you teach rA?

"It didn’t of course and personally I took no notice. I’ve never ‘promoted homo***uality’...wouldn’t know how"

Just bend over rA, the rest will come naturally!

And strange how you criticise my spelling yet fail to do the same with your allies, I haven’t noticed you correcting MA’s idiosyncratic real noun habits.

I only criticised in response to your own rather ridiculous and entirely unprovoked attack, and I can honestly say that I have never seen the word ‘naivety’ written in the way you wrote it. An American affectation perhaps and maybe still in need of accents.

‘Allies’? Is that really how you see things? How very 3rd form. I find that most of what MA says makes sense...same with Swale (except when the anger takes over), mac and one or two others - even you on occasions...simple as that. But...`Allies’? You’ll be talking about `bestest, bestest friends ever’ next.

Very honest of you. Not an American affectation, Naive is an Anglicised French word, as is naïveté. Correct it needed an accent, my steam driven phone won’t allow accents. So one way or another we were both wrong
