    Does that mean the school as a charity can claim 20% gift aid and the parent claim tax relief on their "donations to charity"? Just asking for a friend.

    I know that private school fees are not tax deductible. Don't know about gift aid.

    It’s a reference to an MP who bleated about how easy it was for skint families to cook a nutritious meal for 30p, I believe.

    Once upon a time I would have accepted the line that VAT on fees might push more people into state schools and it would have a negative impact etc etc.

    Now they're dragging more and more people on normal salaries into the higher tax thresholds, sod it, bring on the VAT.

    We need to start taxing wealth, not constantly attacking earnings. Capital gains, private school fees, dividends and the rest.

    Looks like the Tories are giving up on the next election. Sajid Javid joins the growing number of Tory MPs who won't stand next time round. The good news though, is that Boris Johnson says he will defend his seat Uxbridge. That could provide the 'Portillo moment'.

    This is actually quite a calm balanced discussion on both points of view
