Farge denies 2/3rds of children an education

Incredible - there are only 178 Grammar Schools left - the biggest cluster being in Kent -which as a direct result has one of the poorest overall educational achievement levels in the UK. How stupid can Farage get - Thatcher (his hero) led the way is closing down Grammar schools, and thus gave all children the educational opportunity prior to that given to just 30% of them. Comprehensives are the outstanding educational success story of the UK. Only UKIP would take us back to an era when 2/3rds of all kids were declared too thick at the age of 11 to be allowed to be educated. Thankfully UKIP do not have the level of popularity that they seem to think they have. This sort of daft policy is to be expected from someone who has had a privileged upbringing
