Terrible news for education on many levels. 👇@metadesigners @metadesigning
A deeply shocking situation. The @DartingtonTrust, which runs the famous #SchumacherCollege, has announced, without notice or consultation, that all courses have been cancelled or postponed. Just as students have arrived from all over the world to study there. 🧵

VOGUE @BritishVogue out now. Been chosen as one of the "Vogue 25. Vogue Honours the Women....defining and redefining Britain in 2023" "The Welsh 62 year old hasn't been afraid to cause trouble of late " “Her fearless approach to taking on what she believes is a “despicable government” has been one of the most unexpected , but nonetheless inspiring turns of 2023” Heck... The thing is...this is about ALL OF US, not just me, calling out the greedy, divisive politics of the Tory gutter today, but more than that, it's how we'll fight to get this country back for our kids' future in 2024 👍🏼💪🏼 All of us are in this together 🙏🏼 #WednesdayMotivation
