Do you think he is black then ? (and I don't just mean the colour of his skin) | |

Are you suggesting that Kwartengs skin colour is painted on? | |

Well these public schoolboys just cant relate to normal people, plus they have an incredible self confidence (based on feck all). That makes them a danger in power. I would bulldoze all the public schools tomorrow. | |

I agree, most have no empathy at all, never been brought up from childhood little or no parental love or family upbringing, its an anarchic lifestyle that should be brought up with the times. I could never have put my eldest through that, he lived and worked away for nearly 4 yrs I hated it, I just needed to know that he was safe. | |

Fortunately he was not educated on a sink estate comprehensive school and has not has all ambition driven out of him by the state education system. If your are unfortunate to have been poorly educated you end up like that racist Labour MP who thinks it is wrong to have ambition and to better yourself. | |

He's vastly out of his depth though, along with Truss. That Labour MP is a disgrace though I agree, noway back for her now and nor should there be. | |

Same with healthcare. | |

Are Financially they might be seen as privileged but they are brought up often in a weird world Look at the sadness in the faces of the Rees Mogg kids lumbered as they are with ludicrous Latin names . I’ve said before I pity them | |

No issue at all with private schooling (apart from them having charitable status, which I think is a bit off). If you’ve been fortunate enough to afford buy a house in a good catchment area, I don’t think you’ve any right to criticise those who pay directly for private schooling. | | | |

You don't have to donate to that charity if you don't want to. Having charitable status makes them a not for profit organisations so no nasty shareholders to pay. A bit like Welsh Water really. | |
