    A2 English Language Investigation
    I got told by the head of year that i woulndt be allowed back to do english language at sixthform so i didnt do the set homework, however when i went to enroll today i went to a different teacher who said that he was wrong and that i was most definatly allowed on the course.. i start on Thursday and by then i have to get all of my language investigation data together, luckily i got a few ideas and got some pieces together but i dont know what to do, i was thinking maybe a speech from margaret thatcher or something to discuss gender and power, but im not sure..

    If you have any suggestions at all id appreciate them so much!

    Thank you for your time!xxx

    The speeches of Margaret Thatcher and David Cameron? Both Conservative leaders/PM's from contrasting decades

    or

    The speeches of Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair- both PM's but from contrasting parties; you may have more contrast to play with.
