- ‘If somebody is paying for private education, actually they should get a tax break because they’re paying twice’
Nana Akua says everyone pays into the ‘collective pot’ which pays for state education, so people that pay private shouldn’t be taxed because it’s a double payment.

Under Labour our children in private schools will suffer. Why raise vat tax when private schools are expensive. Labour unelectable
I bet the gay man in the awful jumper knits his own yoghurt.
He gives Gay men a bad name....
Meanwhile multinationals are avoiding tax on a collosal scale by being allowed to domicile in Ireland. They still collect 20% VAT on sales, but the UK government doesn't see a penny of it. It is theft. But no, private school fees are the problem it seems. 🙄
All VAT should be removed, from services and products. HOWEVER... if we are going to have it, all private companies should have to pay for it including private schools
Many private schools are charitable trusts, unlike private companies. This also involves them giving generous, often means tested bursaries to pupils whose parents cannot afford to pay & where a particular school’s ethos & approach would benefit the child. Not just scholarships for bright pupils, either. They also have partnerships with state schools & make facilities , etc available.
And CUSTOMS DUTY FEE.
@@lindemelhuish3206schools don't work. OPEN your eyes and see there is no greatness from education
@@lindemelhuish3206 lot of big private companies, like lawyer firms do the same: pro bono work, charity, sponsoring etc
Labour should be stopped at all costs
My 4 year old goes to a private school. We struggle to pay the fees. But he is deaf and is leaning to speak and "listen" with his cochlear implants. We chose private education so he could be in smaller class size and more specialised help.
This policy will make us think twice about how we educate our child.
We have to pay tax. So do the rich. They shouldn’t have got the 20% VAT taken off in the first place.
What about free school places ,what they do
What about also charging VAT on university fees especially for stupid degrees?
VAT was originally brought in as a Tax on LUXURY goods and items. Education is NOT a Luxury, so why the hell should education now have VAT attached to it. Does this also mean that the state schools have to pay VAT on the money they receive from the area education board? That's the way they get their funding. Public schools get their funding direct from the parents, and remember, those parents already pay toward the state education system as part of the overall taxes they pay. So they are in reality paying twice, and now look likely to have to pay VAT on the fees they pay for private education. Can anyone remember all those Labour Ministers & MP's over the years who sent their kids to Public Schools while telling the rest of us that we should not do so? People like Dianne Abbott...... she certainly send her son to public school and I know there have been many, many others....
Rishi is gonna take art and design away and media i wonder why . Hes taking the piss . Wake up british before its to late .
Question to Jonathan: Since not every young family can afford to buy a house now, do you want to tax families who could?
Why are the richest in the country getting tax breaks?
What a lot of people dont understand (looking at some of teh comments on here) is that these schools have chritable status because they dont make a profit. All money is invested back into teh school in the same way as a local rugby club or other sports club. I have seen 3 such schools go under within a 10 mile radius of where I live and I knew some of the parents who sent their kids to them. Most then had to go to a state school which then costs the tax payer over £7,000 per year. There just wasnt enough places at other independant schools to soack up 3 collapsed schools so the state schools class sizes just had to go up instead. Be careful what you wish for and avoid the politics of envy.
Nonsense, to give tax breaks to to elite schools in insanity. I understand it’s a noble and aspirational undertaking but to give tax breaks to someone who can afford in some cases up to £60’000 per year is just wrong.
The tax break should be repealed and that money put into the school budget.
Wonder what private/top end state school the rich bloke with the jumper playing working class hero went too
Lis knows about more than the population about the merits of a private education of course. I wonder why?
........ ITS NOTHING BUT ...........JEALOUSY...........END OF...........AND LABOUR. WAS. FOR. WORKING CLASS. BUT. ....... people need to remember it not the 60s 70s 80s anymore......thats working class........HAS VANISHED......................Labour and starmer have stopped saying working class.........WHY............Labour now calls it .....WORKING PEOPLE..........what does that MEAN........... PEOPLE need to be careful about Labour when voting..............i think Labour are just conning the REAL. WORKING CLASS..........
Schools, churches, and hospitals should be treated like they are in America, as tax exempt, not for profit entities.
We have no rights we never did. Stop acting like you unrelated.
Taxes are considered unlawful, and people are now educating themselves about the law and choosing to stop paying them.
Is this the only thing you got against the Labour? Lol
No, communism is the greatest fear .
Keir is a self-confessed pabloite .
Where is their manifesto, no policy's no plans and no F**KIN idea
Why is having a choice a bad thing? If anything it takes pressure off the state schools?
how will choice go? there will still be private schools. They might have to just sacrifice some profits
@@Bobisalive Over taxing the private sector will make it unaffordable ... why drive them out of business, what harm are they doing?
@@NPC--666 they already tax the private sector in pretty much everything, except private schools
The bloke in the chunky jumper is as think as mince. No concept of tax whatsoever. Where is this tax break?
He is the only one talking sense
@@ianHolmes-up2oc In which case, if you think that, then you really ought to seek counselling.....
Ask someone who des pises labour, they are correct about private schools.
Nope
That's the right approach by Labour. We need to bring taxes to all organisations. Next, they should do is stop non dom tax evasion.
Nobody feels sorry for these people. Private schools should pay tax, I'm sorry but I've lost my tiny violin.
