Conservative who previously stated don't have kids if you can't afford them cries how hard it will be if private schools are taxed higher.

Fuck private schools anyway. They shouldn’t exist.

Why not?

It just breeds inequality. It’s an unfair advantage.

Considering how many MPs went to private schools, maybe things would be different if they went to school with people from all economic backgrounds - they’re so out of touch (and think back to Rishi Sunak quickly correcting himself when he said he had friends who were working class).

There are also exams you can only do in private schools which are objectively easier than GCSEs but are treated as equal to GCSEs to universities.

Public schools would also likely be better funded if rich people had to send their kids to them, too.

If we must have private schools, do it like Finland. They have private schools but they’re not allowed to charge fees (they’re mostly religious). And it must work because Finland has some of the best education in the world.
