It's the birthday today of Prof David Crystal. Anyone who has taught English language at any level will know how influential he has been as an explainer of linguistics. Here, for example, is a piece on the quirks of English spelling. David - thank you. buff.ly/3RZbyo9

One of my favourite things about this "crackdown" on "low value" degrees is that both philosophy and politics have recently ranked amongst the worst for post-graduation salary, but there's no way they'd suggest capping PPE.

Can anyone help - someone shared a Paper2 Language scheme for GCSE a while ago that looked at actual language topics - it taught the basics of the paper and then looked at accents etc Thought I'd saved it but I can't find it anywhere! Please help! @Team_English1

After the meeting, the Chair took me to task for “badgering” the Minister Ah yes, of course - men “cross-question”, women “badger”🙄

Watch this refusal by Minister to answer me on why flights are cheap & trains so expensive - not helped by patronising substitute Tory Cttee Chair shushing me when I dare to do my job holding Govt to account Share if you think we need answers, not obfuscation from the boys 💪

I posted this last May, when @MattHancock lied on camera, saying he'd thrown a "protective ring" round care homes. The tweet was shared 12k times. Today, Hancock lied on camera again - denying on #Marr he'd made the televised claim. RT if you, like me, think this is disgusting.

This is categorically untrue. Care homes were left without testing. Without contract tracing. Without PPE. Without support. You can deny it all you like, @MattHancock, but we were witnesses - we ARE witnesses - and believe me you will be held to account .

Let’s have a thread of favourite sayings/phrases. Any dialect, any language, any age. Just tell us what it means. One of mine: “It’s dark over Albert’s Mother’s.” Referring to gloomy/bad weather in the distance. Heard it in NW UK. Apparently often “Bill’s mother’s” elsewhere.
