Schools out

My Daughter has been chosen today to meet Jim Knight the minister for schools who is visiting her school. They have chosen the brightest and best pupils to meet the mighty Jim as they discuss the ground breaking(experimental) curriculum which is being rolled out in her school. I provided her with a bio and a list of his voting record from they work for you.com. She was horrified that she would be talking to someone who voted for the Iraq war and is now all riled up to ask uncomfortable questions. I wish my parents would have encouraged dissent and accountability when I was her age instead of the conformity and casual racism I was taught.
