CAN WE TAKE THIS BULLSHIT DEBATE ABOUT VAT IN PRIVATE SCHOOLS TO SOME NON FOOTBALL/CITY RELATED THREAD.

To be fair, now we are successful, there must be loads of Manchester people moving into private schools. That’s what happens, your club gets successful, so you do.

It was actually the Tories who first became concerned, as they were battling to attract inward investment into the UK before the General Election, but the PL were fuckin things up with their witch hunt against City.

The first shot across the PL's bows was the proposal for IREF. Politicians, finance & the legal profession know the basic premise of FFP, PSR & APT are anti-competitive, & if replicated across all industry sectors, the economies of the UK & EU would collapse.

In no other business sector is an owner barred from investing how they see fit into their business. It's the most basic competition based foundation of a free market capitalist system.

UEFA & the PL have royally fucked up & are in serious danger of killing the goose that laid the golden eggs in their pursuit of Manchester City. This is why they fear the law courts, because if a club argues what's good for football should be applied across all industries, FFP, PSR & APT would be dead in an instant.

There's a gargantuan difference between regulation to protect the consumer & environment, & a blatant protectionist racket to preserve the hegemony of Europe's elite teams who fear competition from clubs lower down the food chain.

The crazy & sad thing is that the PL & UEFA through their media shills have managed to convince the fans of those clubs who could potentially be affected (Newcastle etc), that these rules were in the best interest of football. They've used the innate tribalism of football fans to justify these unlawful, unfair & unreasonable anti-competition rules.

In Australia, private schools receive exactly the same government funding as a state school, on the basis that the parents have already paid tax, so the school should receive that money irrespective of its funding model. The private school then decides what top up fees to charge the parents. In some cases this is very little, generally to cover extracurricular activities and sports. Which means that decent private schools are in the reach of far more people, making the average private school much less elitist. It's a pity that Labour didn't do this because it would have removed significant pressure from the state system, improved choice and ensured opportunities for children from less affluent families. But of course this isn't about opportunity and positive outcomes. This is about leftist ideology and class war. And it's so obviously wrong and doomed to implode.Can someone tell me what inheritance tax is we don’t know what that is in Australia.

We’re a little off topic here but worth responding. This is not the case.

All schools receive an element of Government funding. However what they receive is all different. In terms of Government funding State schools receive the most, independent schools mid and Private schools the least. On the whole, private Schools would receive significantly less than state schools (per student basis). The “elitist” private Schools you mention are circa AUD$30-35k that the parent pays per year for tuition per student. That being said, the premise of both independent and private schools is good in that they do take a burden off the Government purse, as they’re not solely funded by the Government and they receive less funding per student.

There is no inheritance tax (yet) in Australia. But there are nuances with regards to superannuation (non dependents pay 15% on inherited Superannuation). Again, there are ways this could be managed so as not to incur this 15%

On another note, pensions in Australia are means tested. Depending on your Superannuation balance determines if you get a full, part or no pension. Unlike the UK where all are entitled to a pension.

It also, artfully avoids mentioning exactly who was asked what, thus leaving it open for people to infer that the government and foreign office were asking for updates from the Commission itself. No one needed to "insist" that the IC process is independent, there is nothing whatsoever in the emails that remotely suggests that it isn't, although that is clearly what Ziegler wants his readers to infer.
