So much of edu-Right is cult-like.
❌ First is the weird hero-worship of figures like Bush, @BetsyDeVos, @DougDucey even lesser names like Rhee, and collection of Broad-supts #education #privateschool @DianeRavitch @NPEaction @PV4PS @mrobmused

❌ Third, related to villains is stoked fear:
✔️ perceived threat to way of life
✔️ fear of “the other”
✔️ imagined threats to own children coupled with willingness to actually put them at risk

LADIES,
You tell your girlfriends everything about your relationship. But you know what they say? Love them all but trust none!
No matter how close you are to a woman, it’s a bad idea to share all the details of your relationship with your man.

Telling them about your man’s footlong 4-5, or how he takes his time during foreplay is a bad idea. “Oooh girl, he is so good you won’t believe it. He makes me want to jump off the roof,” you hear some women tell their friends.
“He takes time in bed and he is loaded, girl.
“He takes time in bed and he is loaded, girl.
“I've never had such a lover.” Guess what? She'll want to have a taste of the pleasures you
experience from your man. Every woman wishes for a man who takes his time between the sheets.
No woman wants a one-minute man who will rush, come quickly and leave her high and dry.

Some CNP members - Mike Pence comes quickly to mind - in the context of bolstering their conservative credentials, have proudly revealed their CNP membership, even though CNP's policy is to keep membership a secret. Here is it's 2014 Membership, the latest splcenter.org/sites/default/…
#CNP's tentacles include well-connected activists who advocate for the imposition of fundamentalist Christian ideology in public life and have succeeded in forcing their agenda in republican administrations. A list of organizations working with CNP web.archive.org/web/2012020417…
I didn’t go to private school but would never judge anyone who did (if you’re in a position to give your child the best, ofc you’re going to). Having gone to a (pretty terrible) school, I do, however, feel disadvantaged around the privately educated for a no of reasons 1/?
I therefore think that the system must change: all kids should have the same opps regardless of their parents’ wealth; no-one should grow up feeling inferior because their parents didn’t earn enough. Scandinavia = best education in the world & no private schools #privateschools
This isn’t to say I agree with Labour’s proposal (I vote @TheGreenParty) but I don’t believe private schools are fair. You also have to be outstanding to get a scholarship but many ‘average’ kids would thrive given a better education.
Sadly #LabourConference2019 matters:
#Ofsted was enthusiastically embraced (and reformed) under Blair / Brown ... so it is sad - but inevitable - that #Labour under #Corbyn want to abolish it. Yet Ofsted has been a key part of driving up #educational #standards in England. 1/

Without any doubt children’s #education + #school outcomes are better with an #independent regulator. As a Blairite teacher put it to me:
“No one likes the referee in football but we need them”
Children’s education will be affected adversely if this plan goes ahead 2/

Then #Labour votes to abolish #privateschools + “redistribute” all building/assets = steal!
- obvs Corbyn, McDonnell, Milne, Lansman all ➡️ private schools (Watson did not .. but he’s a Tory now!)
- real Q= how do they integrate 600,000 extra #pupils (+ pay for this)? 3/
