OCR have put a proposal for a Natural History GCSE forward for approval. Many would think I should be overjoyed and enthusiastic – I am not.

Schools and universities going back – and not a plan in sight! The governments scientific advisors have warned of fishers week becoming a series of super spreader events. I feel desperately sorry for students at the moment, their exams have been a farce, university life is meant to be life enhancing and fun, not boring and dull.

Guided by the science! Or not? SAGE has stated that ministers should be planning for a huge rise in Covid cases as schools reopen. The governments plan seems to delegate responsibility to schools without giving them any advice or powers. So no masks or bubbles, no advice on contingency plans for an outbreak other than – schools may contact public health authorities if certain thresholds are met. Does this mean that Williamson is on some extended safari somewhere secret and must not be disturbed? Maybe like Raab’s £40.000 holiday.

Rather than calling a liar, it may be fair to say he is just rewriting the definition of somethings in the dictionary. I will start with “almost everyone’ and ‘overwhelming majority’ that have been used to mean ‘more than a few’ – in the context of evacuating people from Afghanistan where thousands of eligible people have been left behind to an unknown but probably grizzly fate.

A situation way over my head, but some things seem obvious.

Project fear they called it, hold ups at the ports, lack of workers, rising prices. Britain would become a global power in its own right.
