Our taxes paying for private schools

The leadership of Tory Bromley Council looked at using taxes paid by hard working families to prop up the private education of children of wealthier parents.   Councillor Noad, Tory portfolio holder for young people, said:

“Concerns had been raised about what would happen to private school children if their parents were no longer able to pay their fees. The idea is that we might be able to earmark money to keep a child in a private school.”

It shows the instincts of the Conservative Party are unchanged.  Give to the wealthiest few and hit those on middle incomes hard.
