📅There's a week until the deadline to register to vote📅
So important that everyone has chance to vote and have their voices heard in next month's elections.
Local elections are just as important as general elections.

I think of all the hoops that my graduates need to jump through to get their first job. And all the competencies they will need to demonstrate.
And then I look at the staggering incompetence of the UK govt.
Every single one of my students would do a better job. No question.
