Private firms poised to run state schools after reform

Christian groups in talks to take over from local education authorities

Blair seems determined to have state schools run by buisness and religious groups.

Schools are a place of learning, not a way for corporations to fill their coffers or religions to recruit.

At the same time poor schools in less affluent areas will suffer greatly.

So what part of 'state' or 'school' doesn't New Labour get?

Not even Maggie Thatcher herself would dare do something so brazen.

Just more New Labour bollocks.
