Careless Tories!

So it’s all rA’s fault! Poor fallible chap’s having a bad few days.
Seriously though, don’t agree. Even in ‘my day’ teachers had no chance of dragging most kids out of mundanity because there was and will always be a genuinely ‘thick’ but also a massive minority with potential but lack of direction, which teachers could/can only do so much to influence but parents very much should

I’d also argue that (too) many opt out of the working population completely with the blessing of an increasingly soft benefit system which favours them over genuine hard working low paid people.

How on earth am I having a ‘bad few days’? I responded to you yesterday with points you have yet to reply to. I had the healthiest and most sensible exchange with GP that I’ve probably had since he was RR and we agreed that we are both on the same side. My team had one of those deeply satisfying late wins last night and I’ve got a ticket for the West Ham game after all...now it’s warming up.

I also agree entirely with MA’s observations about the education system. Coincidentally (perhaps) we are the only two to have worked within it. No ‘bad few days’ for me. Not for the first time...no idea what you’re talking about.
