8:45 then like abolishing private schools and reforming the whole uk schooling system makes sense. so it's not a matter of choosing which school will give my child the best educational and future outcomes. because all state schools will be able to provide that for their students. what people don't seem to want to acknowledge is how the existence of private sector industries negatively impact the public sector. look at the nhs, look at trains, look at water, fucking housing. what he said about actually taxing private school would do more hurt to the private school and prospect students than good. but he didnt explore what benefit that extra money for state schools could do. and if the effect of it would dwarf any justification of private schools. my point is, private school shouldn't exist. because it helps to reinforce the bad conditions that state schools are in, where it's intended or not.
I can assure you that a substantial amount of money is used by the government ineffectively, I can give factual examples on request. Taxing independent schools does not mean you get some unlimited well of cash. To build well-equipped state secondary schools costs £2,475 per meter square, so you're looking at 100 million and up per school, not to even talk about the costs to develop the trains and nhs you referenced. So the benefit you mentioned is not achievable because the £3 billion generated from seizing the charitable status can build around 30 excellent state schools, which can only accommodate 2% of British students. So whilst it is unfair that some people are born privileged, those of us who aren't, will feel a greater sense of fulfillment when we reach the top, because we worked extra hard. Don't abolish anything, let's just get on with it!
