The #LabourParty seems to have finally settled their position on #privateschools charitable status, which annoys the hell out of many people.
Rather than change their status (which would require legislative change), they are intending tot week tax regulations so that Independent #schools pay VAT & business rates... its a pragmatic solution, which should see fees rise by 20% (at least to cover the VAT) but may prove insufficient for many who cannot see why their charities in the first place!
