"Funny innit that the lefties among them probably scorn "boarding school!!"
Funny innit that the many thousands of people taking up higher education today will not include those from lower paid famies because you Righties have placed it out of reach of reach of their parents and made it only available to the privileged.
Nobody here gives a toss about boardings schools - if a lot of young men (or young women) wish to go off and live together for long periods and get up to what young people get up to in the privacy of their own company, that is their business
That the majority of British people are deprived of a decent education system whic is leading to a situation that we are now being ruled by a bunch of educated Hooray Henrys who have destroyed our industrial base, split the nation into a small number of haves and a vast majority of have-nots and are set fair to close access to a vast number of jobs for unemployed British people - is all our business.
You might be able to give an unquantifed number of monkeys typewriters for an unquantified number of years and end up with the works of Shakespeare but you can't turn a select bunch of privileged buffoons into a decent national leadership which will "put Britain on its feet" - that takes and educated and inspired population.
