I thought the OP would be talking about this latest photo to hit social media.

They even had the nerve to employ outside caterers!

I thought it was GNet etiquette to not comment on posters' spelling? hmm

?? it is but in the absence of being able to defend the behaviour, we might as well try being rude???

Just stating the fees Maizie and doing the sums.
Truth be told most families sending their kids to independent schools earn way in excess of an MP. I guess, it wouldn't look good if he had to give notice for his kids to quit due to lack of funds!

He probably needs the money! DH went for an interview at Shrewsbury School, if this guy's kids attend he will be paying almost £30,000 each child per year.

Sorry?

Does that make it acceptable? No-one has a god given right to send their children to public school...

And to think we have people on another thread moaning about the younger generation living above their means shock

Our Tory's MPs children go to the local comprehensive with my DGC.
If it's good enough for them why is it not good enough for his colleague's children - or all children in the constituency, for that matter?

There is already a post about this, and if you are going to raise accusations of sleaze will you at least spell it correctly.

The Tory MP for Shrewsbury could not afford to pay school fees and has been"grubbing around" (my words) for a job or a consultancy in the Middle East. A link to the full details follows
