with a patient and created a cast of their limb, and computer models will be made to create the various parts of the arm. and then, once all the pieces come together here in our workshop in bristol, we build up the arm piece by piece, threading the tendons and the arm itself gets wired up from the wrist down to the senses, and the frames and sockets get hand finished. arms like these will be given to ukrainian soldiers with the help of the charity, superhumans. they ve been working to open the first centre of its kind to rehabilitate soldiers from the war. we were reached out to from superhumans ukraine organisation about their project to try and start working towards the rehabilitation for ukrainians who ve lost limbs in the war. we met the two soldiers who are being fitted and got a chance to speak with them and spend a little bit of time with them. and it was just extraordinary to see their attitude. andre and vitali are the first two

and teaching them to add and subtract and teach about scienc and history. we don t need to be injecting concepts like gender ideology into the schools, particularly with the young kids. let me ask you about the crt debate. that became an opportunity. your critics, people on the left , throw around the hour word . people are racist. when i looked at the course itself and the tendons that wer being taught and discussed, crt these are their words and not mine. quote, black, studies they called them. why would this be taught in school? why is this being discussed? i m having a hard time understanding why it s even controversial work why is there this push? it doesn t sound like education to me. that is not reading, writing, math, history and computers or preparing someone for a career. that sounds like an agenda that is far different than anything educational that would serve an educational purpose.
