The regional rooms are without doubt a nod in the direction of all those that have asked for them. It is great to see that the SH towers are listening, and if people are unhappy then mybe they should voice their opinion during the debate, not once the decision is made.
However it's a bit disappointing to see that the entire south of England is bracketed in one room, in comparison with the north, which has a few rooms, and Wales has none!
Nice to see some replies to this question. I'm surprised how many people feel they aren't knowledgeable just because they don't have a formal qualification in something though.
So is that what we do know?, simply post links with absolutely no comment on it whatsoever? Wow, seems strange to me.
Apology accepted.
I've suffered bullying too, but only in my adult life. It's not called bullying though, it's called racism. There is fuck all you can do about the colour of your skin or your genetic make up, but you do have the opportunity as an adult of trying to prevent some misery on the next generation. It's quite clear that you feel that uniformity does nothing at all to prevent bullying. it is even more clear that you don't even think it's worthwhile as just one counter measure to bullies. We will just have to disagree.
Where did I say that uniforms/clothing was the sole cause of bullying Foxy?
By all means 'bless my innocent heart' in such a condescending manner all you like, but I still believe in 'removing opportunities' for bullying. If just one child escapes the cruelty that bullying inflicts by having a uniform policy then it has achieved something.
Of course, there are many other reasons why people are bullied, and it doesn't just stop at the school gates. It continues to feature at every stage through life. But that isn't a reason why schools should not try to reduce just one cause is it?
Rather than protect my children from everything in the world, I have allowed them to suffer any number of coughs and colds. The net result is that my daughter at 13 turns off her bedroom radiator, my son of 11 does the same and they both like the window open at night. They rarely get colds or coughs these days and they are perfectly healthy for it.
If you are happy with your financial situation why begrudge investors making money to improve their financial situation?
Out of interest, did you look further than the Because later in the article you copy and pasted from it says 'Like-for-like sales, excluding petrol and VAT, rose 0.5%, which was better than the near 1% decline reported by market leader Tesco in the year to February'. Hardly a land of milk and honey.
Who cares? Sounds like a flash in the pan and a bit of publicity for this Mantel woman.
Really Jed?
You are prepared to sit on one side of the fence or the other, but have no idea what separates the two sides?
