    Hmm, interesting set of prejudices there.

    I know of one public school who own a very large park which all the various local state schools use for sports, but they cannot, because they aren't invited to the meetings where the bookings for its use are made.
    If I were to take an educated guess I would guess that Eton do not use portacabins as classrooms.

    As for Millfield they have no need to ship their students by bus to the local council run sports centre.

    Don't make out that private schools are lacking facilities just like state schools, they are not. If they were the privileged wouldn't pay to use them.

    The people that run the public school you speak of can't be very bright can they.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        Anyone who thinks either GB or DC has a way out of this mess is misguided.

          Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

            I was trying to do understatement for a change. Not very good at it am I.....

                On the contrary, they both do. But they both know it would be electoral suicide, so mum's the word for now.

                  And what, pray tell, has lead you to the stunning conclusion that either of them have the faintest idea what they are doing??
