It shows how much the political epicentre and definitions have changed since 1979 when the idea of for once focussing on the circa 93% of kids in State schools rather than the circa 7% privately educated is viewed as "communism."

Since when was "equality of opportunity" "communism?"

Dearie me.

It's going to cost a bit more to give your kid an advantage over a kid from a poorer family, that's all - Starmer and Streeting are two of the most moderate Labour politicians in history.

It's not like Corbyn is about to become PM - this is what 14 years in power does to rabid Tories, the merest sign the wealth and privilege gravy train might be slowing down just a tiny bit sends them into "Starmergeddon" panic.
