  1. There is a statutory duty for local authorities to provide education for the children within their catchment area. Something else that suffered in the 14 years of Tory austerity.
  2. Thank you for providing an example of Labour dealing with the consequences of the past 14 years of underfunding schools and education.
  3. Firstly can you provide some evidence of what ‘most parents would not willingly choose’? Are you mixing up grammar schools and private schools?
  4. Labour are investing in state schools because they believe in providing a good state education for all children, regardless of the circumstances into which they were born.
  5. You might not like my source, but at least I provided one. Here’s a better idea, increase funding to state schools - Labour are on it.
  6. Here’s a random sky-space shot from an astronomy AP that includes spent rocket boosters floating around in near earth orbit.
  7. Identifying a political leader as ‘the country’, it’s been done before. Never ends well.
  8. I’m pleased to see you are developing some semblance of self awareness.
  9. Well who saw that coming? Meanwhile he’s apparently warmed to other ideas: https://truthout.org/articles/with-the-campaign-over-donald-trump-now-says-he-likes-parts-of-project-2025/
  10. Well done officers. Nice start to their careers.
  11. Labour doing what is right. On this particular issue it’s clear the wider public agree. I suspect many don’t like the idea of people buying advantage over their own children and doing so free of VAT.
  12. It seems the wider public back Labour in this: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2024/dec/31/labours-private-school-tax-plan-strongly-backed-by-public-poll-shows
  13. If anyone has any evidence that Majad al Zeer was an attendee at the actual event being discussed in the OP, can they please post it. The US Department of the Treasury has him living in Germany: https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy2632 https://ofac.treasury.gov/recent-actions/20241007
  14. Rather suggests that he wasn’t an attendee at this ‘meeting’, though the article itself is not clear on that important point.
  15. To be fair to The Times, they have been transparent stating this poll was conducted on their behalf. Perhaps they’ll pay for another nearer the election.
  16. Unless there is evidence to contradict this statement then it seems the PRC is guilty of not having updated its records at Companies House. They want to give that some attention.
  17. Struggling to get over the results of the 2024 election, The Times engages in ‘salty’ fantasies over the next election that’s not due for over 4 years.
  18. Sad news. Jimmy Carter has been beacon of decency and public service. RIP Jimmy.
  19. On the upside, austerity is over and spending on public services is up. This spending will deliver the improvements the public demand. And it’s over four years until the next general election is due. Chill, the promise of better days is based on investing in the nation, not public service cuts for the many and tax cuts for the few.
  20. Can you please provide a reference to any statute that authorizes the beating to death of a restrained prisoner. Because that’s what’s missing.
  21. Refer top of thread for subject of discussion. It isn’t me.
  22. Somebody with so little understanding of the part the public sector play in the functioning of the economy thinks he has a fix for what he believes is wrong with it. “Public Sector Services in the UK are a disaster area. I wont go into the reasons now.” Well I’m sure you won’t like to hear many of the reasons.
  23. There’s a difference between ‘can’ and ‘must’.
