Today, TP7 read - and identified the persuasive techniques within - Text 9: Cathy Reay's 'A message to the NHS: disabled people like having sex, too'.  People who missed today's class should do this work at home.


Next class: we will read Text 10 - As a police officer, I was asked to undermine an alleged rape victim – I wish I could say it was a one-off by The Secret Police Officer
