Benefits and Education

Tomorrow is 1st April, we all know it is April Fools day, did the government specifically pick this day to expect us to take the new benefits as a joke, it seems not, I notice that several churches have come out against the implementation of the new benefits system, many housing associations have warned that evictions are bound to increase and many children will be forced under the lowest level of living standards, is that an acceptable situation?, is it right that their education will suffer, lack of food, good clothing, and books ?, no of course its not acceptable, tell your MP you are not happy with the reduction of benefits, not only does this affect the unemployed it also affects the employed on low wages, the other stupid part of this is the fact that benefit is going to be paid monthly not fortnightly as it is at the moment, just how are a family going to cope?, in all honesty they will not!!.

Then we go to the teachers!, who seem to think they are better than all of us and should be treated as a special case, well I think not, many teachers are inadequate how if this is the case are they still employed teaching?, the children who pass through schools who have these teachers are not up to the standards that are required, they are poor at maths and English so that other teachers have to do a job that should have been done in a Primary School, so do not expect any support from me, schools as far as I am concerned should remove these teachers if the can't improve, our children's future life depends on the education they receive, it is not acceptable to just mill along doing nothing action needs to be taken now before any more children miss the education they deserve.
