I assume they used his sister because she was four at the time, whereas Ben Gummer was 12 and thus would quite probably have told his dad where to get off.

That was his daughter, Cordelia. Apparently his mother went ballistic after the press had gone. That was one of the shittiest things ever done by a politician.

Interesting that he named his daughter after a child of King Lear...

Stop pointing your bloody finger in the air at every opportunity! Also, would Ayrton Senna ever have radioed his team and said "Yabba-dabba-dee! Rrrrring-ding-a-ding-ding-ding-ding..."? No, he would not.

Katy Ivens from the Campaign for Real Education. She was on the news this morning calling teachers bastards and stating that CRB checks for parents are not neeeded. After all, who ever heard of a parent abusing a child?

I just watched that clip, the woman is as mad as some hedgehogs in a bag. "Parents would be good at teaching" - with no training or subject knowledge..commonsense innit. "Parents are good at looking after children, it's what they do" - regardless of age/gender differences of their own off-spring and the pack tendencies of the adolescent. So the parent of a couple of toddlers would naturally have the skills to control a group of 30-50 15 year olds? And, as Sanityattack says there's no need for CRB checks cos parents wuve children and would never harm one - except for all the parents who have been convicted of just that.

Here's the link

I didn't get to Ivens. I listened to ATL woman and we had "risk assessment" and "statutory duty" and all that. Not that she was wrong, of course, but it should be possible to make a case without jargon.

To be fair to Ivens she was very coherent until her Amulet of Sanity got cracked after she began speaking and it started banging against the microphone.

Ex Aprentice cuntestant Katie Hopkins, who I just had the missfortune to catch on The One Show.

What a self-important anal wart of a woman, and utterly shit guest journo to boot.

The current teachers strike, and public and private sector pensions.

You can imagine. :evil:
