I've never been able to understand why (state) sixth form colleges have to pay VAT? When we buy things like graphical calculators in bulk for students to buy, we have to charge them 20% more than their peers in schools. If we have to pay it, private schools certainly should!

Fun fact: in the 1960s, Civil Rights protestors were given literal classes on nonviolent protest; they didn't all just spontaneously know what to do. So, if you're planning on showing up, this weekend: read this comic. And if you're staying home, signal-boost it/link it around.

Just so I'm clear. The EHRC were able to do all the necessary work to get legal advice on interim guidance in 9 days and within 4 weeks have produced an updated guidance with a consultation, but they cannot respond to a letter before action in 14 days or 21 days (which is FOI time period). Liars.

It's been exactly 6 months since I launched my first enamel pin at canopyrobin.etsy.com Since then, I've sold over 700 pins to people across 13 countries and more than 300 towns 🤯 I've also made 5 more designs in 28 variations. Thank you so much to everyone who's bought and shared them!

an enamel pin badge in the shape of a tree in progress pride flag colours. It's on a backing card that says "LGBTreeQ+ by canopy robin. Did you know that only % of flowering plants are of a binary sex? Most plants have either multiple sexes of flowers on the same individual plant, or multiple sexes within a single flower!"

An enamel pin in the shape of a flower in a pot. It is shown with white petals indoors and rainbow petals outdoors

Circular enamel pins that say "It's Dr actually" and show the nonbinary, trans, agender, genderqueer, genderfluid, bigender, intersex, progress pride, and lesbian flags
