@WilliamN42804 @77thUnit7@Freespeech212@MrJoKeR604 I’m sorry to burst your bubble but they wouldn’t be, turnouts are lower for local elections and it just so happens that reforms primary demographic have high turn out in these elections
@Kremmen101@molmutius@echetus Didn’t say you can’t make it work, the issue is that growing up in one reduces both educational outcomes and access to opportunities massively
@MattDownham@molmutius@echetus The fact that other areas have it even worst is a straw man argument. It doesn’t change the fact that those opportunities still aren’t accessible to the vast majority of those kids
@molmutius@echetus So therefore it’s not that bad Is not a real argument but just highlights how kids from poorer backgrounds nationally have much worst outcomes. Also the point about “underrepresented backgrounds” also ignores the fact that there are many white kids with the same circumstances
@molmutius@echetus I agree that those “underprivileged” kids in London do have access to more opportunities than those in other areas but that doesn’t take away from the fact that most of the kids still never get real access to these opportunities. The argument that they have it less worst
