As if we needed any more evidence that the public sector is run for the benefit of its employees rather than of the people who pay for it, here is the latest proof:
While thousands of state schools received heavy criticism for closing due to transport disruption and fear of accidents on slippery playgrounds, almost all independent schools carried on, they said.
See that? State schools were closing by the thousand, but nearly the whole of the independent sector stayed open.
There's no argument. They must all be privatised.
