A huge challenge for Covid vaccine rollout will be to inoculate against conspiracy theories & vaccine scepticism. Insulting & sneering at anti-vaxxers is counter-productive, much better to prepare the ground urgently now through education & persuasion https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/nov/11/vaccine-infodemic-covid-pandemic-anti-vaxxers-campaigns-persuade

Unwarranted politicization of school curriculum. It's not up to govt to decide whether young people are exposed to anti-capitalism. Is IS up to govt to ensure that young people think critically & make up their own minds on basis of evidence @educationgovuk https://infolit.org.uk/information-literacy-and-political-censorship-in-the-school-curriculum/

Oh look, the PM in a school library! Does he actually know what that is? And will it still be around this time next year?

Another shocking but sadly unsurprising example of the commodification of public service provision. I gather that @JonAshworth will be raising this in Parliament asap on behalf of the Labour Opposition @NickPoole1
