@LangmanVince You’re not participating because you weren’t good enough. If Tom Brady was born in Europe he would probably be a world class footballer/rugby player/etc, rather than being a “world champion” in a sport that only the USA plays! You lot need to get out more.
@BarkerLeadershp Why VAT on private schools, but not on pre school nursery or on university education? The difference is choice; because people choose to pay for their children’s education, the left get apoplectic; “how dare they” and “who do they think they are”.
@annaturley If they paid for it, they earned it. People should have freedom of choice how they spend their money. @KemiBadenoch was right it is just spiteful class warfare.
@bphillipsonMP Co-pilot response:
no official source shows a +3,008 increase.
No evidence found for +1,646 FE teachers.
Trainee teachers up 13% - No evidence supports this claim.
Teacher pay up 9.5% - Partially supported
Record inv. in schools - No evidence found for “record investment”.
@annaturley The “rest of you” aren’t paying for them to have a tax break. Those parents are effectively paying twice. They pay for their children to go to private school and then pay again through their taxes for state education. The reality is they are subsidising everyone else.
@AndyBurnhamGM What are your policies going to be and what mandate do you have for those? It seems you are about to be crowned as the new PM and the British people have no idea what you stand for.
Ironic that #Arsenal have mastered the fine art of wrestling in the penalty box when they have a corner, and a #VAR decision goes in their favour gifting them the title when there is basically a mosh pit going on. #WHUARS@Arsenal@WestHam
