Fazzer 7 Posted 15 July 2022 Share Posted 15 July 2022 Most of the right leaning pundits,are now saying Sunak and Mordaunt would be a disaster. Throw it open now to the Tory membership instead of Tory MP’s attempting to manipulate the outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badenoch is probably the clearest communicator left in this, expect her to impress tonight - although I do think Truss still makes final two.

There is absolutely no chance that badenoch will finish ahead of truss in the mp vote truss could be the tub of lard in HIGNFU and still get more votes ….

Have this real horrible feeling that Truss is going to be PM 🤬!!... ... Take your time and let that thought sink in. Complete disaster with her in charge. In normal times I'd be all for it, as hopefully she'd be the one to take them down but, with the situation in Europe, she's the last person needed to be in charge. Complete disaster in the making.

I do not think that a selection few Tory members should decide who leads the country either. They are not representative of the country as a whole and therefore should not hold so much power. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not convinced that train drivers' jobs require more skills than those of specialist doctors. If we are picking random public servants wages to compare why don’t you compare train driver to MPs, train driver looks much better value to me.

The secretary of state for education earns £145k, a top head teacher earns £125k and doesn't get sacked every year. MPs are poorly paid when compared to other business leaders which is why the quality isn't always what it should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionator Posted 15 July 2022 Author Share Posted 15 July 2022 10 hours ago, Jon the Hat said: Your logic here is rather backwards. The very rich don't care, they can afford private schools regardless. Those impacted are people who are not very rich who choose to send their children to private schools, for all kinds of reasons. I do think there is a case for removing Charitable status, but I am not convinced it will do anything other than make Private schools even more elite by pushing out the professional classes. You might also therefore end up having some more VAT but having to fund many thousands more state school places with it. If people want to pay to send their kids to private school I don't really see the harm. How about investing in state schools so they have better facilities? Surely if you can afford £9k+ fees a term, you’d be rich? My family is middle class and really couldn’t afford that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
