Following our paper on VAT on private schools, I wanted to address some feedback. So…here is a small thought experiment about buying something as prices rise. Bear with me… 🧵1/10

A survey published in 'The Sunday Times' says 23% of parents have decided to move children to state schools because of The Labour Party's school fee VAT plans. Research by the Adam Smith Institute (@Maxwell_Marlow) shows this could cost the Govt £1.6bn. So why do this?

.Sadiq Khan has destroyed London.

He refuses to tackle knife crime.

He has to go.

Well said Colin Rayner. This country needs efficient food production ahead of wild flowers.

Industry are now warning that Labour’s energy plans would leave the UK “uninvestable.”

Hundreds of thousands of jobs and £450 billion of investment all at risk.

Our energy security must come before ideology.

Now leave the Princess of Wales alone.

The Adam Smith Institute published research on Monday that says what we as parents have said all along: Adding VAT to independent school fees will force children out of their schools and into already crowded state schools. It could also cost taxpayers £1.6bn. Lose-lose.

Flawed Labour economics again! The ill thought through policy of VAT on school fees, could cost the taxpayer £1.6billion. A significant number would be forced to shift to state sector which would be overburdened. Politics of envy damaging our education system. Education Not Taxation

Over 100,000 people have signed our petition, asking Labour not to charge VAT on independent school fees. Here's an update...

LibDem Bath and N-E Somerset are the very definition of a rogue Council frequently ignoring the majority.

Councils that ignore local opposition to (LTNs) and 20mph zones could be stripped of their powers to issue penalties…

'A young woman has revealed how she was diagnosed with incurable cancer after her smear test was delayed during lockdown.'

There are thousands of patients like Abi, who were quite frankly tossed aside in favour of media hysteria and a desperation to reduce one cause of harm, and…

I fear that life years lost to cancer diagnosis/treatment disruption during lockdown will outweigh those sadly taken by the virus.

Just one part of lockdown's vast collateral damage.

The ongoing harm inflicted on the population is too great for any of us to fully understand.

No longer just performative philistines. Real life, self-indulgent, nihilistic destroyers of art and history. What an insult: narcissists hiding behind the Palestinian cause to indulge in their own regressive, visceral culture war to declare they are virtuous activists. Look at…

Our plan for the economy means that over the last 14 years we’ve had faster growth than the biggest economies in Europe 📈

Sadiq Khan once called moderate Muslims, Uncle Toms.
He’s labelled anti ULEZ protesters as ‘far right’.
He plays the race card at every opportunity he can.
He’s a liar, he’s devious and he knows how to deflect from his own failings, ie London’s crime epidemic.

Utter fraud.
