My disagreement with David Seymour on truancy has been short-lived this week - because I could not agree more with him today.
Those kids out bunking school today so they can strike for the climate should be marked down as truant: Explained but unjustified absence.
I think I'm less tolerant of it today than I was when these shenanigans first started up because at least the ones who were striking back in 2019 when their messiah Greta Thunberg was leading them seemed to be genuinely motivated by the delusion that the opinion of children counted.
