To become a courageous leader, you must realize that accepting responsibility is not optional - it's mandatory David Cottrell
Secretary of State, Gillian Keegan, recently told Head Teachers it is THEIR responsibility to pick up absent pupils and drive them to school.
âHeadteachers "have a duty" to drive to the homes of absent pupils and bring them into school, the education secretary has said.â Â (Sky News: 14/07/23)
No it isnât! It is the parentâs responsibility to ensure their children attend school. Failing that, it is the responsibility of the Educational Welfare Offer (EWO) to chase up absent children.
However, the number of EWOâs has been cut. This has been going on ever since the Toryâs came to power in 2012.
âThe growth in free schools and academies, together with cuts in the number of education welfare officers (EWO's) are critical factors behind children missing out on education..." (Unison: 19/11/13)
Pre 2012, it was the responsibility of local authorities to provide the educational welfare service. By 2015 things had changed dramatically. Since then, Tory Governments have focused on a system based on individual school action.
In a survey of 180 EWOâs, where 86% of the respondents worked for local authorities, these were some of the findings.
69% of the respondents said fewer resources were being invested into early intervention and prevention work. Some said their local authority was planning to remove the EWOÂ service altogether, while 80 of respondents reported a cut in the number of EWOâs being employed.
The obvious result of these Tory cuts is an increase in truancy rates.
âThe latest attendance data from the Department for Education (DfE) revealed that absences in the spring term this year were still 50% higher than before the pandemic, while in 2021-22 more than one in five secondary pupils were âpersistently absentâ for missing 10% or more of sessions.â Guardian: 23/04/23)
Having created the problem Tory ministers, though their short-sighted policy of austerity, then have the arrogance to expect other people to pick up the pieces.
This simple example within education serves as a blueprint within ALL public sector serviceâs â from the NHS through to tax collection.
âLONDON â Britainâs tax authority failed to collect ÂŁ42 billion (S$68 billion) in 2021-2022, in large part because it did not have the staff to ensure compliance, leaving public finances under even greater strain, a committee of lawmakers said. (STRAITSTIMES: 11/01/23)
When will they learn that cutting public sector worker numbers is a false economy? Itâs time we had a change of government and a change of economic policy. Unfortunately, Labour, under Keir Starmer, is only going to offer more of the same. Surely we deserve better?

The main Justice League conference hall, but it's just Barry with his head in his hands, Batman (already pinching the bridge of his nose under the cowl), and a strained but hopeful Superman staring at a small car's worth of unfiled tax documents and receipts all across the table.
#aka#bruce and clark help barry with his taxes#that he maybe didn't file for like 5+ years#but he kept all the receipts!#how hard could it be!#clark bullies bruce into helping#clark fills out his own W2s so he thinks this will be easy#bruce has a small army of accountants at his beck and call and still can't parse some of these#late night thoughts#barry allen#the flash#batman#superman#clark kent#bruce wayne#justice league#jl

Finished Object... Thursday?
My fiancée asked for the tablet woven bracelet I said I'd make, meaning I had to finish the project currently on the loom first. This cord is just a tad too wide for this particular bag, so I may end up making a narrower one later, but for now it holds things shut and will work until I figure out something better. I'm still really proud of this band and I learned a lot while making it.
Because bracelets are so small, the warping and weaving were actually pretty quick for that, so it only took about a day to weave once the loom was free. I'm still working on tension and consistency with projects over about 14 cards (this one was 24) but I still like how this turned out. It's a bit shorter than what I'd intended, so I have plans for changes for the next one, but it does make me want to keep trying bigger weaving projects!
Not a recent finish, but I did finish the second test knit of the dice bag pattern, and will start editing the pattern soon!
#crafts#description in alt text#knitting#knitblr#knit#tablet weaving#card weaving#weaving#rigid heddle loom#though i have a fiddle inkle loom on the way as a gift from my fiancee#i said âim considering ysing my tax return for thisâ and she said âconsider it already boughtâ by which i mean she sent me the receipt#showing she purchased it for me and it would ship in march#(they're handmade so it takes them time to make the loom and ship it and they constantly have approximately one billion orders at any time)#trans#trans crafter#also! forgot to mention in the lost but tjcrochets is the one who made the bag!

Whenever I get the opportunity to explain Stew Leonardâs Lore to anyone outside the tristate I light up like Mohegan Sun.
#this supermarket has got everything! actually a somewhat baffling selection!#but itâs definitely got singing animatronics! five nights at fairfield franchise only instead of eldritch horror itâs tax fraud#actually itâs still got a little bit of eldritch horror.#the silent hill alarm at checkout that informs you that you may now exchange your receipt for a âfreeâ frozen yogurt#if thatâs not faustian foreshadowing I donât know what is man

I'm so fucking sick of every transaction screen begging for tips or for me to donate to charity through a mega corporation so they can use it as a tax write-off and not donate their own money. fuck you fuck you fuck you
#the fucking weed store has tip jars EVERYWHERE. youre already charging insane taxes on the weed come on whytf would i tip too#or when receipts & touch screens are like ''tip? đ„ș'' on take out orders & theres 3 fucking tip options that take up 3/4 of the screen#meanwhile 'no tip' is a teeny tiny button on the corner#something something people shouldnt need tips to survive & the onus for their living wages shouldnt be on the customers generosity#fuck capitalism#tc posts

spent an hour doing battle with the NSLSC website in order to find some tax receipts. then I got a pop-up asking if I'd be willing to fill out a five-minute survey about their website and service. yes! of course!
to my delight, I WAS offered a text box to explain why I was 'very dissatisfied' with my experience. so I let them know: their website is like waking up in the middle of a vast maze full of weird little traps and riddles. I had not yet found what I needed and it was time for a break and a snack, but I'd come back later and maybe I'd even get around to filing my taxes if the Minotaur didn't show up to eat me before I got that far.
(I DID eventually locate said receipts, but my god, they should not be so fucking difficult to get to.)
#nslsc = national student loan service centre. btw.#then my dad came home and let me know he doesn't actually need these receipts this year anyway lol#he suggests I save them for when I'm working full time and paying higher taxes#I can submit them then for a little bit of a break#anyway. I saved them all to my hard drive directly so they're handy next time I go looking.#life
