green hippo Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Sounds like he's in the wrong party or maybe the wrong country! Think he's been taking tips from North Korea! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyfs1966 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 when oh when will politicians leave teaching and curriculum up to those who actually understand and deliver it...ie then teachers!! I'd hate the health minister to start to meddle in my heath care in the same way that Gove meddles with education!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larnielass Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I think he has a point there. I'd like to nominate 'Catcher in the Rye'. I hated the themes in this book. My son struggled with it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Oh dear... My reading of this article , related articles and subsequent reaction has just led my daughter to ask me what 'twit' means, except the vowel was different. God forbid the youth of today should get any ideas about socially equal society, fairness, civil rights, racism and power. it might affect how they vote in the future. How is this idiot man allowed to dictate the art and culture that our children will experience based on his own whims and fancies? Put this alongside the new history curriculum and we can expect our children to be inward looking, small-minded UKIP voters. Long live the Empire. Rah, rah!!!
