I was a bit of a troublemaker in secondary school. I got sent to “time out” for busying myself with trying to make my peers laugh. I got detention for skipping homework, and extra homework for skipping detention – basically any kind of soft rebellion you can think of, I gave it a go. Like many kids, I found formal education at times exhausting, uninspiring, and an interruption of more important things like who fancied whom.
Poetry saved me too...

The Guardian view on poetry in schools: don't let it go | EditorialEditorial: Finding meaning in verse can be a challenge for teenagers. But it is also a joy, and letting them drop it is the wrong move Why can’t the guardian let the children of the nation get at least one good thing out of the governments crap education reforms. No more poetry! if poetry goes then you will be saying that spelling and grammar are not important! time for some reverse psychology. If the Guardian were to call for a ban on poetry then the headbangers on the Right would lobby the Government to bring it back.

The Germans don’t worship their health service – that’s why it’s better than ours'In Britain, the health service is an object of high emotion. Behind the praise often lies a fear that it is precarious,' writes Charles Moore The NHS 'worship' over the past 5 months has been engineered by Nazi style psychologists. At the end of the day, it is an amazing service as well as having bad points. Look at the privatised Nursing Homes-privatisation just looks for profit for the owner-bottom line. NO, the Germans spend 11.25% of their GDP on healthcare, we only spend 9.6% on it ! Charles Morre, hates the NHS, always has. He wants to make money out of sick people, like his American mates.
