[J Surman]

It will be of no surprise to anyone here that governments are hell bent on the privatisation of anything and everything.

Education, well public education, is suffering badly in the US. Having spent a good number of years in the UK public schools system classrooms (public meaning non-private, free system) criticizing much of the curriculum and methods promoted for teaching of such I relate wholeheartedly to the following link whilst empathising with students and teachers.

This just about sums up what an awful lot of kids – and teachers! – are expected to go through for years.

Roll on the revolution. Are you there Ed? I thought of you!
