Seeing our son singing this utopian song on stage at his primary school tonight in his leavers’ show was so uplifting – the optimism of youth is such a counter balance to the grim anger at my union meeting yesterday evening for instance. Shed a few tears tonight, especially as the focus of their show was a “lifetime achievement oscar” for their lovely headteacher who’s retiring this summer… Really wonderful to hear the genuine appreciation for someone who has given lifelong public service, something this government is determined not to value (unless you’re a volunteer of course).
Going back to the song, I’m just so moved that my son is a dreamer too – of another world being possible
