Can we say that, these remarkable and commendable efforts notwithstanding, the charge that people who were against tax cuts and yet don't voluntarily overpay are somewhat hypocritical, is supremely idiotic?

What kind of tax cut did you get, Dan? Mine was simply a deduction of the amount of tax paid. Do you adjust your wage based on the old tax brackets? That's going to require a bit of work I would think.

He's bound to be gesticulating wildly, surely? While listening to eurodisco.
This is disturbing. Are you in the house right now?

It's still a legislated requirement for primary schools to identify and provide for their gifted kids
We should only reward hard earned children, enough with these bludgers.

Low earners can't afford private, the highest bracket already pays and in order to "keep up" the angst driven middle earners go private as it becomes bettter subsidised.
Low earners gets screwed anyway, don't worry: when middle class kids move the private schools, it hurts a school's ability to fundraise, and of course schools need that in order to do their core business.

Yes, the same bogus principle according to which the public health system will work better if more people take up private health insurance. We know about that one - working a treat in the US for instance.

I was also rather critical of parties making large spending promises that I couldn't for the life of me see being affordable
It is affordable to start funding private schools, however, apparently. How do you feel about that one?

Steady there, Tom. Our state primary school includes a private Montessori block and it does nothing but enrich the school. I can't for the life of me think why we ought to get rid of it.

Hard to argue with that.
