Sorry, but this is ludicrous.
The people educating their kids privately are in the very highest income brackets. I posted evidence for this upthread.
If you go past any private school at chucking out time, the parents are not in old bangers, quite the opposite.
My niece goes to a private school. She went on school trips to south Africa and Italy last year. If half the parents were as you describe, this would not be what's on offer. I have work colleagues whose offspring went to Barbados for a netball tournament.
Pleading parental poverty as a reason not to do this is completely unsupportable. You're embarrassing yourself trying to.
Lol. I didn't even mention your mate.How dare you. You know nothing about my mate and the scarifices he’s had to make. Just fuck off you insulting, ignorant twat.
People scrimp and save to get their kids a better education and worry sick that they may have to pull them out of their school half way through. You have no fucking clue.
Haha come on chippy he didn't mention your mate.How dare you. You know nothing about my mate and the scarifices he’s had to make. You insulting, ignorant twat.
SOME people scrimp and save to get their kids a better education and worry sick about how they can continue to afford it and that they may have to pull them out of their school half way through. You have no fucking clue.
Not everyone is minted.
See aboveReally. You utter nob.
He made a sweeping and all-compassing statement. Clearly SOME people won’t blink at an extra 20% but to suggest that is everyone, is not only demonstrably wrong - my mate being a good example - it’s patently bollocks.Haha come on chippy he didn't mention your mate.

Most parents have more than one child and if putting them in an independent school, put 2 or more through a private education. The average annual fees are £16k per year (and someone paying it probably was a higher rate tax payer, so had to earn £28k to pay for that. X2 kids = £56k of their salary. That’s a VAST amount of money for all but a tiny minority. Having to find another £11k VAT (£20k of gross salary) on top is huge.
Yet that moron waves it away as if it’s trivial. What a prat.
Typical lefty nonsense argument. Basically that you are justified in taking any arbitrarily large amount of money off anyone better off, because they are better off.Nobody is ever going to feel sorry for somebody spending more on school fees a year than some people survive on.
Sorry, it’s nonsense regardless of the mental gymnastics being used to justify it.
Like I said earlier, they aren’t living in the real world.
The pain for you is bad today chippyTypical lefty nonsense argument. Basically that you are justified in taking any arbitrarily large amount of money off anyone better off, because they are better off.
