No. I recognise that the utter ineptitude of most people affords me my living, but I still cannot bear the sight of grown up people FANNYING ABOUT.Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostBollocks; you love it because you can invoice the bastards when you sort out their mess.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

You were on about this sh!te 10 years ago!Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostSo why not make every school private and give people vouchers with which to spend. Why shouldn't every school have the highest standards of teaching and facilities. I am not talking about giving every child the same education I am talking about giving parents choices.
Change the fcking record!Comment

Why not?Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostSo why not make every school private and give people vouchers with which to spend.

You seem to be struggling with some basic concepts like ordering and the meanings of comparatives and superlatives. They teach you that stuff at comprehensives donchaknow.
Parents already have lots of choices.
