Teachers are asking perfectly reasonable and sensible questions which cry/bully BorisJohnson and his criminally incompetent Tory ministers can’t answer or won’t Bluster and spin won’t cut it. The Johnsongraph officially a comic written by comedians

Very important for kids to be back in education now, Bojo is a babe for wanting what is best for them.

Teaching unions stand up for the rights of teachers and schoolchildren. Johnson walks out on his own offspring. Why would he care about the children of others?

Government has been wrong every step of the way through the pandemic. Unions are using their sense it seems.
