NATIONALISATION OF THE FAMILY
In the latest extension in the nationalisation of the family, Labour is to spend £680million of taxpayers money to subsidise schools to stay open for 10 hours a day. The idea is that parents can then leave their children in school for much longer.
Given that school budgets are already strained trying to educate children, and those children cannot be healthily fed, there is no justification for this expenditure other than socialist ideology.
Those who prefer not to work and to look after their own children full time will not benefit, nor will those who leave their children with other family members. Yet these people are still having to pay the necessary taxation.
Labour is merely trying to bring the raising of children more under the control of the state.
