@StufferSuitcase @sharkastic @vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @COOKIETSC No top ups. No fees. Privates effectively become free schools. Maintains all the choice, equals out funding, or does it have to involve some sort of funding premium for you to accept it?

@StufferSuitcase @sharkastic @vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @COOKIETSC Or, future higher earners will just come from the state system. And have a better chance of coming from a disadvantaged background. “Make many children unhappy” by funding private schools through a different model? How would that work? Nonsense.

@StufferSuitcase @chloembroidery @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC My “views and assumptions” were that the vast majority of teachers use state education. Which is correct. Just because some teachers use private education, does not make it some sort of necessity. And she “EVEN” has a builder (and we all know how awful they are)🤦‍♂️

@chloembroidery @StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC Labour plan a handful of pupils moving, during a period when rolls are falling anyway, the extra raised by VAT will be far more then that cost.

@StufferSuitcase @chloembroidery @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC Again, I am proposing that everyone pay more tax, or at least everyone on 50k+. I’ve also said I’d prefer VAT to be much lower, with no exceptions. (Fairly mainstream) But you continue down this pointless road if you want.

@chloembroidery @StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC Higher level of taxation. Obviously. Bigger state nations are better places to live.

@chloembroidery @StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC 2/3s of a tiny minority is an even tinier minority. Again the vast majority of teachers, doctors, and dentists use state schools. You do understand how numbers work? “Even have a builder” letting it show a little bit there aren’t you!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

@vickygrayson_ @StufferSuitcase @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC “Entitlement” No. I’m proposing a fairer system. I’m not telling you how to spend your money, I’ve said repeatedly, that given the system, it makes perfect sense. Doesn’t make it a good system.

@StufferSuitcase @sharkastic @vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @COOKIETSC What I preach is altering things at system level. To make the outcomes of the system better. If you are genuinely serious, then you are genuinely stupid.

@StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC No I don’t. I don’t want anyone to go to the super special leg up school for wealthy families in the first place. I don’t want to “hamper” anyone. I just don’t want wealthy families to buy an advantage that isn’t available to everyone else.

@chloembroidery @StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @alexhrbfc @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC The vast majority of teachers, doctors, dentists, military etc use state schools. This is abject nonsense.

@StufferSuitcase @vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC This is pretty puerile. I’ve said and will say again. I support higher taxation, that I’d prefer that taxation to be of income and inheritance then VAT, but if we have VAT I see no reason not to apply it to school fees. I also support priority admission for PP pupils

@vickygrayson_ @alexhrbfc @chloembroidery @StufferSuitcase @AdamJ10812 @IsabelPat1886 @oldishbird1 @sharkastic @COOKIETSC I’ve just said, very clearly, that I would support a policy that gave disadvantaged pupils priority in admissions. I’ve no idea what you’re wittering on about.
