    ‘Spiteful tax’ and ‘spiteful people’ seems more than a little harsh to me, AF, although I can see both sides of the argument.
    It may also, imo, be a tad naive of you to criticise me ‘painting it as an elite privilege’. I’m sure there are a minority of less well healed people in Independent schools, in fact I know there are…however they are likely to have won scholarships which will cover many of the fees and, generally speaking, Independent/Public schools are establishments that cater for the better off 5 ‘ish’ % as the fact that, I think, 27 of our 56 Prime Ministers have come from just two such schools - Eton and Harrow (with 20 coming from the former alone) would indicate.

    P.S. Apologies…no idea why this appears twice.
