"Privately educated children will grow up to be future leaders, movers and shakers of the UK economy."


"We help the poor...they pay less taxes because of us."

I don't know who this David Lyscombe guy thinks he is fooling.

They've had it their way for centuries and this is an example of how they will fight tooth and nail to keep it that way.

Assuming this whole business with representative democracy was actually fair and good, I don't see why privately educated children should have precedence over publicly educated children.
