Maybe my memory isn’t serving me correctly but didn’t Blair say something along the lines of "Education, education, education"?

I didn’t realise that this was political speak for "Closures, closures, closures!"

Again, it has to beg the question; if the children are passing record numbers of exams with record high grades then surely these schools must be almost non-existent at best?

Ruth Kelly claims that the closed schools can then be taken over by any of the following:

1. Private Companies - Exactly how many private companies can you name that would want to take over a failing school with nothing but money being poured down the drain and no chance of profit in sight without some sort of ulterior motive? It would be difficult for a corporation or the like (the only size of business even close to being able to afford to lose all of that money without self-destructing) to resist the temptation to groom the children for working in their factories and "labour camps." To think that they wouldn't do this would be the equivalent of thinking that they wouldn't employ slave labour in the Far East or sponsor the manufacture of weapons for war and then get paid 10 times as much to clear up the mess afterwards. Besides, would you want your children being educated by a corporation? Let's not bury our heads in the sand. Furthermore, the Labour government promised to get rid of the private school system, not expand it beyond all comprehension. Who controls the curriculum at a private, corporation run school?

2. Parents' groups - I guess that most of you, having read my first point about corporate schools, will already have guessed already that there are not many parents out there with the kind of money required to finance a school. Those that do have the money have probably already opted to remove their children and place them in the private school sector anyway. Like Tony Blair’s children for example!

3. "Faith organisations" – Ok...We warned you before and we will do it again for those that were not paying attention...Ruth Kelly is a member of a "Catholic" organisation called Opus Dei. These ultra religious crackpots are for, amongst other things, self-torture and self-mutilation in repentance of sin. Now, when she was first put into the position of Education Secretary I spoke to a very good friend of mine in the UK (who works very closely with the education system) at great length and she, like me, seemed more than a little concerned by the idea of our education system being run by this "type of person." The biggest concern here is that so few people are aware of the results of a similar system in the US that has been piloted and is now being rolled out across the nation. These so called "Faith Organisations" are being run by extreme groups posing as religious groups (like Opus Dei for example and are literally arriving at schools across the US and physically removing children from their classroom and taking them to secure compounds where their education is outside of the national curriculum and their parents have to get permission to visit them.

DON'T SAY I DIDN’T WARN YOU...I TOLD YOU THAT FAITH BASED EDUCATION WAS COMING AND NOW IT IS...I AM TELLING YOU THAT FAITH PRISONS ARE NEXT AND THEY ARE.

DON’T LET THEM DO THIS TO OUR CHILDREN. ASK YOURSELF WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT...KEEPING YOUR MOUTH SHUT OR YOUR CHILDRENS FUTURE. NOT HARD IS IT?
