"lame humblebrag" or virtue signalling

My wife is a primary school teacher - I'd be fine with the extra just being paid directly to the school tbh.

Then you should feel free to do that and not volunteer other people to do so. It's called freedom.

I should imagine that your sentiments are echoed amongst many...excepting the champagne socialists of course.

We do - my wife buys stuff for the school all the time. Ridiculous that she has to.

True. If that's the case then she should be commended for investing in her students in every sense of the word.

You have just admitted to money burning a hole in your pocket that you don't need.

Now you give me this!

If your morality had any real basis rather than being a mental convenience....a one eyed form of moralising for others..... then you'd be in a job like hers and not instead an overpaid example of the finance industry.

If you don’t live in a poor area then the middle class parents should chip in a bit, if they value education that is.

Or they’re kidding themselves competition out there in the world, or in the come here to England please everyone world isn’t getting tougher and tougher than it was when they were sharing a text book or messing about because there would be a good chance of a home and a life to look forward to. And breathe.

Not really, that's just how it reads to you.

As you know....some of my harshest criticism.....and I accept I'm harsh....is for champagne socialism.

What point are you making here? You can’t have a good job and believe society is unfair/unbalanced at the same time?

I don’t get it.

Yeah, f*** the people who are working their arses off and already pay £40% tax. Let them pay for more immigrants while watching their country go to s***.

Oh bore off. You're way over the comfort threshold – save money by using the NHS and the state system.

Choices you make. Or, as previously stated, go and live in an even more corrupt country where you can skim as much off the top as you (don't) need.

No, realism and I am not a fanatic. Please by all means put the case of Labour and lets open up the debate in a constructive manner.

But you are most definitely partisan.

That was a request – I too would like to see a Tory fanatic vs Labour/Momentum fanatic forum off. Willo vs. ?
