When the liberals no longer see the defence of free speech as the cornerstone of education I’m afraid they demonstrate their irrelevance.

There does seem to be a narrative that the male victim of DV is somehow less deserving, especially as he withdrew his complaint. Some abusers go onto kill their victims after complaints are withdrawn. CPS should be defended on this one.

Yes I do. As a result of fiscal drag and the tories abolishing the age related personal allowance, most pensioners are being drawn into income tax. The answer is to raise personal allowances for all tax payers in line with inflation.

Simply Surrey have a policy of funding SEND children to attend independent schools rather than the state run special sector. These are tax payer subsidies. Few parents could ever independently afford hugely expensive SEND provision.
