Did anyone else see this trial and error garbage on BBC 1 last night? It's a more adult version of Grange hill where there familiarity with staff and the first name basis of addressing teachers is tolerated but makes me cringe and shudder with embarressment at the same time. Niel Morrissey plays this cool but tough teacher but I personally wish he'd just go back to playing an alchie with Martin Clunes.


Spot on with the amount of bumfluff though.

I lived on Waterloo Road as a kid, my school wasn't like that.

You tried calling Sister Mary Frances by her first name and you ended up in intensive care.

And your parents would have said you asked for it.

And you would probably have been excommunicated.

How times have changed in the SE1 postal district.

    • I don't really understand the question in this context? I mean, yes, most of us are motivated by a degree of self interest but Rockets is not standing for election as a local councillor( is he?), nor did he stand for leadership of the Council, so in that sense does not have the power or influence to significantly affect thousands of voter lives. 
    • @Sue of course it matters - 100% it matters. He was an elected official who asked the electorate to entrust the running of a local ward to him as a Labour councillor, under Labour's mandate. He also held a senior position within the Labour local leadership team. Suddenly he leaves and jumps to a political rival and gives his previous political party both barrels. This is why many people distrust all politicians and things like this just goes to confirm that.
    • We may never know, but does it actually matter?
    • Ha ha, @ianr maybe I am more sceptical towards politicians than others as my dad insisted I watched Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister and read Private Eye in my younger years! It opened my eyes to politicians and how they will flip flop to suit their own personal goals! One does wonder if Cllr McAsh would have made the same "principled" jump to the Greens if he had not had his Labour career knee-capped by Labour HQ over the leadership of the council.....
