Removing charitable status from private schools would raise £1,700,000,000 a year – almost twice the cost of providing free school meals for all primary school children.
That's not a "difficult decision", is it @Jeremy_Hunt?

Shell today announced £8,000,000,000 in quarterly profits, double its profits last year.
But it paid *zero* tax on North Sea oil production and nothing in windfall tax.
The Tories are choosing to squeeze your living standards, not their profits.
That's whose side they're on.
Home Secretary will have confidential info from:
🧨National Security Council (NSC)
🧨The Security Service
🧨Border and police powers to enforce lockdown
Our country can't afford to ignore her ministerial breaches it's a matter of national security.
When my mother had a 3rd child, she never thought she'd end up relying on benefits, but she did.
It can happen to anyone - that was the point of the safety net.
In today's Tory Britain she'd be denied support for my little brother.
And now, this anonymous, insulting briefing.
This is nonsense. To make that stamp duty saving you'd need to be buying a £500,000+ property.
With 10% deposit, cheapest fix mortgage would cost £2,400/mth (£28,000/yr). How can someone on £30k afford that
I am asking treasury to remove.

An old Etonian former investment banker — who represents a party funded by billionaires and big business — delivered a budget on Friday that hands tax cuts worth billions to the super-rich but does nothing for the poorest.
If that’s not class war, what is?

This is a Bankers’ Budget:
- Scrapping the cap on bonuses
- Slashing tax for the top 1% of earners
- Cutting tax on big businesses' profits
When millions urgently need help with the cost-of-living crisis, the Tories are helping out their super-rich mates.

My thoughts are with the Queen’s family as they come to terms with their personal loss, as well as those here and around the world who will mourn her death.
I enjoyed discussing our families, gardens and jam-making with her.
May she rest in peace.
Royal Mail made £758,000,000 in profit, handed £600,000,000 to shareholders, and paid £2,000,000+ to their two CEOs.
But then bosses offered workers a massive real terms pay cut.

Jeremy Corbyn wanted to max out CEO pay at twenty times the salary of the lowest paid company employee. That one policy alone would have prevented this epidemic of greed.
Needed- leadership with vision.
•Beaches in East Sussex have been closed tonight after sewage was released into the sea. Southern water are “very sorry”.
•Last year Southern made £139ml profit, after a £90ml fine for pumping sewage into rivers & seas.
Comes a time when “sorry” doesn’t cut it.
Nationalise.
Sunak “forgets” to point out 40% of people on Universal Credit are actually in work, 56% of people in poverty are in a working family, 7 in 10 children in poverty are in a family where at least one parent works - what does this say about those running the country!
THIS IS BEYOND SHOCKING
Last night - to woo Tory Members - Rishi Sunak again BLAMED benefit claimants for high inflation and labour shortages
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE? WHY IS THIS NOT BEING REPORTED?
Reversing Sunak’s bank tax giveaway would bring in £7.3bn pa; taxing financial transactions at just 0.2% would raise £4.7bn+ pa; taxing the £653bn wealth held by UK billionaires, at just 3% for wealth over £10ml, would raise £60bn+.
Don’t let them tell you there is no money.
