Labours best policy idea.
Stop the tax break on the posh schools, redirect to the kids who are being taught maths by an unqualified stand in teachers with barely any experience!!
But I’ve been assured that this policy represents the politics of envy… crabs in a bucket… the collapse of the state school system under the weight of working class students being priced out of private education.
I look forward to posters telling us why that’s still the case.
A major argument I keep seeing around taxing private schools is that it’s really unfair on the people who have worked really hard to afford to send their kids and who will now be priced out.
Well, just work a bit harder then. That’s how it works, isn’t it?
