🇬🇧LABOURS SKOLESKATT SLÅR TILBAKE: 100 NEDLEGGELSER KOMMER
I flere måneder bagatelliserte ministre advarsler om at private skoler ville stenge under Labours skatteplan.
Nå har finansminister Torsten Bell endelig innrømmet det: rundt 100 skoler forventes å stenge.
Et dusin har allerede lagt ned eller annonsert nedleggelser siden januar.
Independent Schools Council sier at regjeringen, inkludert utdanningsminister Bridget Phillipson, fortsatt sukkerbelegger skaden.
Labour hevder at skatten vil finansiere flere statlige skolelærere, men kritikere sier at den vil etterlate 40 000 barn som kjemper for plasser og 11 000 ansatte uten arbeid.

🚨 🇬🇧 LABOUR'S BRIGHT IDEA: MAKE PRIVATE SCHOOLS EXPENSIVE, NOT BETTER
Labour’s latest move slaps a 20% VAT—Value-Added Tax, a consumption tax levied on goods and services—on private school fees.
The result?
Families are yanking their kids out, scrambling for state schools that often don’t have room.
Some parents report their children now commute miles to less-equipped schools, disrupting their education.
This isn’t bold reform; it’s a cash grab that makes private education pricier without fixing deeper problems like underfunded state schools or overcrowded classrooms.
