For example, from a College Lecturer, we get a glimpse of why the education system is so crap:
I could never be anything but left wing – my mother is
the daughter of a South Yorkshire miner, a trade unionist and long time

Banning private health care? What, I can’t buy my own aspirin now?

taxation as a consequent of the Council Tax. This was a deliberate aim
of the Conservative Party and its to Labour’s shame…
