Never forget that the main purpose of private schools isn't education but social segregation, and when certain ppl on the right feel like that process is being threatened, even very marginally, they'll start saying unhinged shit like this
Unis letting in pupils with lower grades than private school pupils are using a practice ‘as abhorrent as discrimination on the basis of race or sex’, says @Policy_Exchange head of education. Can this be squared with #LevellingUp? https://t.co/83GdkK4U9L

Refusing to let teenage girls go to the toilet 'because they should have gone at break'? It's worth bearing in mind their period may not have started conveniently between 10.40 and 11am... and no they shouldn't have to say it...

@Miss_Snuffy @jordanbpeterson Makes a change inviting from the unapologetic IRA defender Claire Fox into your school I guess.
