I remember where I was when I watched the final episode of Blackadder Goes Forth and how I sat stunned at the end. One of the best pieces of tragicomic writing ever, in any form; worth another look today of all days.

Swimming is a life skill. Access to swimming lessons via school MUST be maintained ⬇️
Learning to swim is on the national curriculum but not ofsted checked. Party due to covid but cost & loss of pools children are not all learning to swim & drowning rates have risen. School is the only place we can catch all children, especially those from deprived backgrounds

Our pools are where... 🏊 children learn to swim 💙 friends and families bond 💦 people of all ages look after their physical and mental health, reducing pressures on the NHS That’s why we’re saying #DontPutACapOnSwimming!

The truth is staring at us in the face Women have had quite enough of this gaslighting by the media. A male offender. A male’s crimes. And have these offences also been recorded as by a woman? An insult and a lie if so #NotOurCrimes
