Just for general wonderings…
As a member of the NUT I will be striking on June 30th. Having spoken to teachers contemplating whether or not to strike it would seem there are various reasons both for and against striking, some professional, some personal, some ideological. But for me the decision is simple: I’m a member of the union, the union are asking me to strike, therefore I strike.
As Billy Bragg once sang…..”There is power in a union”…..

Today’s picture….waiting for Frank Turner gig to start……in a church in Cambridge!
More proof…..St Peter’s Church….
It was a great night, Frank was in top form as usual. Whilst out I also earned a GCSE in crowd participation and an A Level in air harmonica. The highlight of the night….Frank stepping away from the microphone and into the crowd with guitar whilst we all sang ‘The Ballad of Me & My Friends’…..”and we’re definitely going to hell, we’ll have all the best stories to tell”….in a CHURCH!
