Do you have a reference for any of this, or is it just your inane ranting again? Maybe a link that isn't to the Mail on Sunday, Sunday Telegraph or Sunday Times - nor, to be even-handed, to The Observer or The Guardian?

Not taking sides, just wondering

You ask fror a reference but exclude all the national newspapers...

If you copy and paste some of the text into Google it should show the source... or if you can be ar*ed to read it http://www.integrationandcohesion.or...documents.aspx bollux is the source report

GOOD state schools are being barred from choosing pupils from middle-class families by the government's education watchdog on admissions.

The schools have been hit by a series of rulings which block them from doing anything that might be seen as giving preferential treatment to middle-class applicants.
The policy is being forced through by the government in a drive to use admissions to tackle "segregation" in society. The judgements, which set a precedent extending throughout the state school system, include:

• - Banning headteachers from asking parents why they want to come to the school, in case this puts non-English speakers at a disadvantage
  
  
• - Barring schools from asking for children's birth certificates in case this identifies the parents' jobs, which might give professional families a competitive edge
  
  
• - Forbidding a discussion with parents of the school's Ofsted inspection report as this might discriminate against parents who "do no understand bureaucracy"
  
  
• - Stopping schools asking parents whether they support its ethos because this might be considered "patronising" to less well-educated or ethnic minority parents.

and a prime target for IR35 or whatever bollocks they dream up next. In a fair and just system (according to Brownstuff), everyone will be up to their eyes in debt or taxes, or both.

The saying only two things are certain, death and taxes, is being rewritten debt and taxes. Death is just another way of saying you defaulted on the loan. Don't worry, they'll get your kids instead.

I have no debt - does that make me a member of the aristocracy?

It makes you enemy of the state who evades taxation by not buying lots of useless stuff.

* the only difference between the middleclass and the chav class is that the middle class bought their way off the council estates by maxing out their debt facilities.

Middle classes are sadly too lazy to get off their DFS / Land of Leather sofas and go and vote in case they miss the next instalment of Big Brother / Dancing on Ice / Eastenders while they're doing so. This is why Liebour won last time and are relying on the same mass apathy next time round. Just my 2ps worth. HTH.

That's why my Plan B is to set up a vote by proxy TV show where the lazy chavs-in-debt* can text their vote in for £1 plus the usual network charges.

Oh how the intensively farmed chickens will soon be coming home to roost when they have to start paying it all back and their house is in negative equity.

In order to vote a government out, you've got to vote another government in.

I think as economic crisis bites (and it barely started) people are becoming angrier and angrier at current Govt.

Personally I'd vote for any party that would make law that any official (and this includes MPs and their advisors) proposing tax increases gets a minimum 5 years jail term after which they are asked whether they changed their view on taxation, if not they get another 5 years.

Middle classes should be in majority and should vote this Govt out.

In order to vote a government out, you've got to vote another government in. Therein lies the problem, at least in this country.

The government wants everyone in society to be equal - equally illiterate and useless.
Nobody is allowed to succeed.

Most people are quite good at making sure that is the case for themselves.

HTH.
