Just what is happening in our schools on 09:06 - Oct 10 by oldtownjack | Much of the RE curriculum is based around empathy and understanding of other viewpoints, including atheism and humanism. It teaches youngsters to be able to articulate and explain why they may agree or not agree with a particular viewpoint in the right way, without the need for antipathy, aggression or violence. Whether we like it or nor, different viewpoints play a part in the communities in which we live and students are given the facts about these viewpoints, without which they may end up watching some of the more divisive stuff online. It should be about education not indoctrination. I agree though, there should be no schools based on faith which just breeds isolation and division. Most good schools will have kids from all sorts of different backgrounds mixing, being friends, playing together and sharing ideas. [Post edited 10 Oct 13:42]

Yet in chapels , children are taught that what they are being taught is the way the truth and the life Christianity has always been preeminent until now |  |

Bit random that. You think only Reform voters are concerned about child abuse? [Post edited 10 Oct 16:51]

The voters entrust local officials, councillors, MP’s, police forces to deal with horrific issues like the grooming gangs without fear or favour, but they knew full well it was going on and covered it up for decades largely because they didn’t want to be accused of being racist or feared “inflaming community tensions” or even because they had the horrendous attitude that these thousands and thousands of young girls must have been absolutely gagging for it because they wore make up, got drunk and wore short skirts, the provocative little sluts (sarcasm). In short they failed so many people. And it happened over vast swathes of the country in numerous towns mostly in labour areas but also under Tory and Lib Dem governments. They’ve all failed to deal with this issue and many many others. Reform may very well be a complete disaster we don’t know yet but surely you can understand why so many voters want something to change? |  |

I do. But the suggestion that if you want change (or want accountability for the grooming gang scandal) the only option is Reform is bizarre. It’s like where the term ‘Patriot’ has been bent to mean mean only one thing. It’s all simplistic nonsense. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

If government's past and present had done a better job controlling the problem there wouldn't be a need for the knee jerk that is happening now. They have only themselves to blame. |  | |  |

I agree with you WR but we have to approach these topics sensibly. Look what’s happened on this thread. We’ve gone from a school having lessons as per the curriculum on Islam to child abusers within 2 and a half pages. How on earth are we supposed to have a sensible conversation? JoN posted on a different thread that the level of debate has shrunk on here and I think he’s right. Often because someone can’t help but light the touch paper and also because I feel its become a bit an echo chamber. Although we have political differences one of my absolute favourite posters is Boundy. He’s principled, respectful and thoughtful. We might disagree on certain things but I’d love to have a beer with him and put the world to rights. Unfortunately there’s are a few on both sides who find posting in the way he does difficult and that’s quite a recent thing. |  | |  |

Absolutely they have. Every party that has been elected in the last 20 odd years has pledged to reduce immigration numbers whilst campaigning for your vote. Every one has failed/ignored the issue. The Libs, the Greens, Plaid Cymru, Jezbollah have all made it abundantly clear they are happy to accept as many people as possible. Where else are the voters who are concerned about the numbers being far too high too quickly supposed to go? |  |

There will always be WuMs Gwyn. The ones that used to be more prevalent are now ignored by sensible posters and no longer post as often. Ignore them and starve them of the responses they crave, they will soon fade away. |  | |  |

If all the other major parties have a long and storied record of not dealing with/turning a blind eye to the issue then by the process of deduction and abject reasoning they are by definition the only option. The established parties have become far too complacent because they’ve enjoyed this relative status quo and impunity with their hundreds of historical ‘safe seats’ and party loyalty. The Tories have already had their kicking and deservedly so. Labour are undoubtedly next. The Lib Dem’s are too busy dancing and white water rafting to come across as anything like a serious party and the Greens are full of mad people and hippies. If this carries on it’s going to be a blood bath. |  |

Don’t fret On this board , comments aren’t changed with some respect We read and form judgements of people which is human nature but stupid Remember intelligence is a curse The smarter you get , the more idiots you see You’re a good contributor although we are miles apart and that’s fine by me |  |

It’s not simplistic at all. After years of cover ups by all the mainstream parties at every level from national disgraces such as Grenfell, numerous grooming gangs, Hillsborough, blood scandal, the post office scandal etc etc etc. Onlybthe other night yet another national scandal reared its head regarding our servicemen being used as guinea pigs during nuclear weapon testing. Then we have the constant financial scandals where no one is held accountable. It’s no wonder people have had enough with mainstream parties, and not just here in the UK. |  | |  |

The answers Reform are giving are simplistic. I’d go as far as saying childlike. [Post edited 11 Oct 15:12]

Not for me. I’d need a lot more information. The only thing I can base it on is the small amount of info I have from taking on councils which has been a farce. |  | |  |
Just what is happening in our schools on 18:03 - Oct 11 with 516 views | ReslovenSwan1 | According to an online search " During the process, a Muslim must recite a blessing, like "Bismillah Allahu Akbar," in the name of God (Allah). "I put it to you your honour that this does not actually happen every time an animal is slaughtered". It is therefore irrelevant whether it is halal or no and hardly any food produced is strictly halal. Once we have sorted out we can move on the the form of slaughter. Is it with or without stunning. I have no fixed view on this. It is certainly nothing for me to become c vexed about. |  |

It was a tongue in cheek post, I've no idea who I'll vote for in May, I used to research candidates and try and pick the most competent person, but the new voting system has taken that away as an option. It seems madness that you can't vote fur the person you feel is the best to represent you. |  |

Well Labour had 14 years to prepare for power. Prior to them the Tories had 13 years on their hands. The Libs helped out a couple of times…..and look where we are today. Do you advocate more of the same? |  | |  |

Just what is happening in our schools on 01:38 - Oct 12 with 370 views | Robbie | Schools in some parts of the UK installing metal dectector systems to check on what the pupils are bring to an education necessary these days , Appeasing the childrens upbring over past events , and being trying to make sense of the mess we are in regarding education of so many cultures , good luck the teachers on that . Young girl took a weapon to school just down the road from me and stabbed her teachers She was 15 years old and wanted revenge on them for whatever reason . The smell of weed outside my early morning trip via the local Comp is overpowering . Come across some really good and polite children these days too in my work . |  | |  |
