Appallingly, herring are one of the 'bait fish' used to feed farmed salmon with nutrients being lost in the process.
The more we eat the 'bait fish' and not the farmed one, the better for us, and the environment. #Offthetable

#HainaultAttack Lots to discuss here, incl. the meanings & values associated with #trauma & #normalcy , what's inferred in the use of the words 'afford' & 'business', whose reality we are talking about, and whether there is a reductive tyranny in #WhatWorks bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-e…

I've been doing some research about the legacy of #Partition , and came across this. Now I'm also asking about the extent to which the outcomes of reviews might be corrupted. middleeasteye.net/news/leicester…

Graeme Tiffany We have walked away from some funding as it came with so much red tape as to be practically unusable. Oven-ready, pre packaged-and long past it’s sell by date; a pale imitation of what good youth work should look like.
#CassReview demands those working with young people understand the difference between affirmation, being non-judgemental, and critical partiality. Likewise, what it truly means to work holistically. As ever, #philosophy 's focus on meaning and value can help.
A previous exemplar of #LowThresholdPractice now well and truly shackled; when will folk learn that the drive to make #youthwork more 'efficient' has led to the complete opposite?
