Making them take 50% intakes of smart kids from state schools would have much better an effect, you’d raise the standard there and help thousands of normal children into the bargain.

Don’t they offer sone places to kids from “ normal backgrounds “ ?

When the reality is, that they’re actually selecting the most gifted kids from “ normal backgrounds “ and spinning this as evidence of their inclusivity.

My mum is one of those women. Thinks he’s “ charming “ and a ” gent “.

You could very easily imagine him in an SS uniform.

Take away the monocle and top hat and give him a cockney accent and he’d be getting booted all over.

They have to do a quota of scholarships to help keep their charity status.

They have to do a quota of scholarships to help keep their charity status.

Which means cherry picking the brightest state school kids.

 

[tsubaki]

Would never happen as would defeat the purpose for the real reason these schools exist.

I know, they’d be forced into being the charitable organisations they claim to be (and were set up as in many cases) or go out of business.

 

[tsubaki]

Make it 80% or go full Finland!

50% would be enough, 20% being toffs would make it too easy.

The

50% would be enough, 20% being toffs would make it too easy.

The worry would be the possible/probable favouritism and networks for the fee paying toffs.

It’s at times like these I wish we had the wisdom of @peteblue to explain to us why people so vehemently against Rishis policy didn’t vote against in… ya know… in the interests of the public they are there to serve.

Is Davek on comms for the Tories today?

 

[Xizor]

That's an insanely bad campaign poster. The pertinent bit of info they want to get across ("terrorist") is in the smallest font on it.

And Saul doesn't remotely rhyme with Keir. Not even if you discovered a way to squint your ears.

If you just glanced at it you'd think it was pro-Starmer.

I think everyone with any talent at CCHQ must have already left the building.

Couple of ladies I used to work with loved him. From proper working class areas as well.
He’s an all round nasty piece of work.

He'd kidnap them, torture them and pee in their mouths just for kicks before chucking their corpses in the Thames.
