Education Not Taxation (@educationnottax) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Bridget Phillipson has imposed a damaging tax on private schools — yet hasn’t visited a single one in nearly a year. The Ministerial Code demands: šŸ“Œ Evidence-based decisions — but she hasn’t engaged with affected schools or parents. šŸ“Œ Fairness and impartiality — yet shows clear

There’s much ignorance about how the HM Treasury education VAT gouge operates. It’s not a tariff on schools, it’s a tariff on a class of parents who pay for but don’t use their state funded place. Those parents have various reasons & for many the state place is inappropriate.

There are really only two freedoms in any civilised nation. Free speech and freedom to travel. They will take both away from you.

If either of these two men had a shred of decency, or were interested in anything other than self-promotion, they would refuse to appear standing anywhere near this appalling failure. Sometimes, the company you keep matters.

This is very good. ā€œThe ideal of the rule of law is built on the following simple proposition: you do not belong to the state. As a result, there is and must be a limit to how much the state can require you to do to contribute to the common good.ā€ Eg Phillipson and your children.

What a sad and dreadful situation - in Britain. But this is Rishi Sunak’s only legacy. There were plenty of people warning him that this would happen if they didn’t deal appropriately with the post Oct 7th monsters on the streets.
