    I don’t know anyone who said these things. You have said everyone did. Please send evidence in your next post…

    That's your twisted alternate reality to a tee. I don't recall Loadsa or any else on here that disagrees with your warped worldview that is happy to fund unlimited immigration and draws the line at educating children. Your post(s) a total distortion.

    I object to the whole idea of private education. Middle class people already vastly outperfom the working class in state schools and in employment. People in private schools are live in closed bubbles and then go on to be state leaders who know nothing about our society.

    This is the area I lean furthest left on. This class system in the UK is absolutely horrendous - and nowhere more apparent in the elitist of our top institutions:

    Not all schools are passing it on, Loading. But again, your ****ty personality comes over once again, this is personal for you, isnt it?

    Is the logical reason you appear to come across as though being pleased it hurt me in my pocket. Weird thing to do, when you think about it.

    I don’t know if you have children, or are planning to, but I wouldn’t wish for your child’s schools to be overrun with pupils where your child gets a worse education.

    Puck had a very reasoned response above btw, and very true indeed.

    I can see the distinction but note those perceived as immigrants whose businesses are attacked, NHS staff and care workers etc who are harassed should also be treated as terrorist victims..

    With regard to private education I actually agree with you to a degree. I went to state school and had no issues. I always am of the thought that cream rises to the top regardless of social background. However, I grew up in a relatively prosperous area of Bournemouth and my views may be different if I lived elsewhere. My daughter went to private junior school and then we sent her to a state secondary school.

    I would personally fund him to go to private school. He is like a parrot for the very worst in society.

    I’d be a bit wary of private education tbh. I know a couple of people who were educated at fee paying schools, and their education doesn’t sound as if it was that great tbh. Of course if you can afford to send your kids to Eton, then you are paying for more than an education; you’re paying for an intro to the upper echelons of society.

    But if you want to buy what you believe to be an advantage for your children, then of course you should be taxed on it. We pay tax on everything we buy, just about. The Norse so because income tax is so unpopular, and a certain vote loser for any political party that proposes to increase it.

    Again, wtf are you talking about.

    You haven’t listened to anything I said about how I have funded my children. There are many people who have done the same.

    You appear to believe it is only the elite/wealthy that go, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Children of builders, office workers etc go there, the parents make huge sacrifices to get them there.

    My god, how clueless are you within your anger and rage in this topic. You are literally blinded.

    I’m done on this topic with you btw, you have embarrassed yourself, I can’t keep enabling you to do this.

    My god - is it too hot for you?

    Send me the list of everyone who said this or don’t respond.

    All I said was I didn’t hear anyone say it. I said earlier that I barely followed this stuff on the news. I wasn’t lying.

    Sounds like a good argument for adding VAT to university tuition fees.

    I thought you were "worried about freedom of speech". If that was true, I would work hard to find out what these people had said rather than making joked about the erosion of your civil liberties. I gave you one example, from the wife of a Tory councillor, and you have not given me a single one of somebody sent to prison for nothing. Where is your ONE example?

    But University tuition fees are not (ignoring Scotland) two-tiered. Everyone either pays or everyone does not.

    I never said anything about being sent to prison for nothing!

    Genuinely I think you either misread what I said, or this is too personal for you.

    You said that everyone that got sentenced said something like wanting people to burn to death. I said I doubted it was tru that everyone said that.

    I have no idea outside of this what the hell you are talking about!

    Mate, you posted a hundred laughing faces and then act like I am the one getting personally upset?

    So, go on. Explain why you are worried about freedom of speech since you admit yourself you know nothing about this.
