I He was encouraging and frightening to read David Mitchell’s article (“This is a shock, Gen Z: Democracy is not perfect“A new review). What made his article to resonate in particular is the ruling,” Did no one tell them about Stalin? “
As a student at the level of history, it is a reminder of one of the many reasons that I chose to study: so that the presence of mysterious awareness of the horrors of previous tyranny can help fight its current investigation.
I do not argue that the history of GCSE becomes obligatory, but for a low study of the risks of some of the most important events in history regarding democracy, which was taught in the method of personal, social, health and economic education.
It is strange that in a world in which Donald Trump and Eileon Musk seem to control the top, the British government imposes religious education until the age of 16, but not to teach history. If Care Starmer remembers his education in his history, he will remember that the Nazis used their educational approach to turning the youth of Germany towards fascism. He must now use the youth of this country in the opposite direction and hold democracy high – because all we have obtained.

A lot of dark generation in life is due to the bad government, deadly ideology and bad faith, not an overdose of democracy. While lamenting young young people, we must think about the number of times they will hear their elders – without rehabilitation or interpretation – the absence of a “strong leader”.
We must consider the influence of the presidential style that is located in the media that was adopted by the prime ministers since Tony Blair; He noticed the erosion of power change of the cabinet government since the premium presidency of David Cameron and the consider the worship of the personality, which has not excused the end of the moral void of Boris Johnson. In particular, we must consider the erosion effect of the deviant electoral system that makes the voices of the huge spaces of the population excessive. Although the embrace of the apparent tyranny or reducing the toxic effect of study on the Internet should not be exempt, the older generations should bear the responsibility of some of the distortions that young people make up their reality.

Art enthusiasts must pay their way
I agree with Catherine Bennett that we must ask visitors from abroad to pay entry fees to our national museums and exhibitions (“Macron got a point: Why should we not charge tourists to see our treasures?“Commentary). On a recent visit to Paris, there is an acceptance that pays it in exchange for access to these groups. .

Housing crisis solutions
Thank you, Rawan Moore, for your excellent hole in the acceleration methods of building millions of homes that the UK needs urgently, especially for the poor sectors of the population (“Peace, permanence and reasonable prices: six ways to solve the housing crisis in Britain“, to focus).
If we leave aside the decisive issues of a chronic deficiency in builders and skilled materials, there is the fact that the main developers do not care about solving the housing crisis. It greatly benefits from property shortages and prices constantly high.
One of the favorite tactics is land banking, buying major construction sites in bulk and practicing their freedom not to build on them until they fit. They even do not need to build on the ground because once the planning permit can sell it several times its original price. The government must obtain a grip on the practices of developers or there will be enough real estate. One of the roads is to set a tax on developer -owned lands, which will increase, for example, every six months if the construction is late; Another may be the decree that if the land is sold, with or without planning permission, it must be sold at the original purchase price. There may be other ways, but currently, the shy action government only targets the system of planning and local adornment.

BBC drama
Kate Malbaby, who writes about the Great Book Syndicate in Great Britain (WGGB) and the campaign of sister unions, Save Audio Drama in BBC, it is correct to say that artists have had to face the challenges of new species and new formats and new masters throughout history, but it overlooks a more accurate point Important (“Sorry, Judy, the BBC radio job is to find listeners, not the playwright training“, comment).
WGGB works with BBC and other employers in the interest of its members. Unions are not dictatorial entities standing in the way of change, and they are not shed on their members. They are their members, and as history also showed, workers stand together collectively to protect their jobs, their wages and their working conditions are precious and we must stick to it.
