General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Billy, xrh59 I am shocked but not surprised that you managed to get this serious topic of education around to trying to crack onto the teacher in just 2 hits!!

Are u giving us a flashback to your school years and mis-spent youth?

xrh59 - don't you know that some lads would have LOVED to be taught by a nun, that uniform, all that discipline.

Getting back to the initial posting - yes I agree, forced education is a waste of time. Some of them will have a couple of kids by then, so why would they want to be in school? Any exemptions for dads who want to earn a quid??

Probably another red herring to distract the voters from other more important and pressing issues like, health and decent pensions for lifetime taxpayers.
