I have a disabled friend, so I am more than aware of what she's going through. I have a father who works in a jobcentre, where his work is both challenging, rewarding and frustrating in equal measure, for a whole host of reasons, very much like mine, I would think! Got to be careful there; don't want to get him into any trouble! I think politicians spend more time slagging each other off than they do doing anything useful. However, i asked my mother last night what she thought about all of this. She said" I might've felt like booing him, but I wouldn't have actually done it". I agree. I often feel frustrated at the "i can't be bothered" attitude of some of our learners, but if I decided to express that in any other way apart from talking to them, ie, aggressive physical contact, I would be out of a job. Sometimes you have to think about how you respond to things.Some people might agree with me, as people did in the Metro newspaper the other day. Others might think I'm as bad as Osbourne (look I have never admitted to being a perfect human being, far from it, but give me some credit please). whatever you think, it still makes us look bad as a country, IMHO.
