Thought of the day

I spoke with our Chair last night and we had to agree we were excited that a new school in Swinton was to offer services that worked around the working mum or Dad. It seems sad that the Labour contingent seem negative,  of course we would fight something that could, and i use the word could take money from out existing   schools but we await to see the figures before we try to attack something that could benefit all.We are in a period of change and we must be able to take on board new ideas and working practices,if we can stimulate and produce extra places for people to fill and the jobs to match then that is the course we must take.I sometimes think Labours thoughts are luddite,perhaps it’s time for a clear out of bankrupt ideas,any thoughts?
