So presumably the million foreign kids that will join our education system in the next ten years, and their parents, will qualify for these new benefits?



Fair isn't it supporting the whole world?!

What a very clever president the Chilians have! He stage managed that rescue very successfully, we were all there with them. And then what do I see we suddenly have a Chilian/American author on NN. Anything with the word Chile in it will sell wonderfully well at the moment.

I would add that I admire the Chile people for the successful rescue of those miners, and I particularly loved the cohesion and comradeship of the people below and above ground. Would that happen here now? I don't think so, we are so diverse, we wouldn't know social cohesion and solidarity if it jumped up and bit us!

Oh God help us.

Who decided that what poor 2 year olds need is 15 hours a week in a prescribed institution mostly surrounded by feather headed young women following a handbook of do's and don'ts.

What they need is a stable home life, love, good nutrition, a supportive community, and as wide an experience of the world around them (with the necessary protection offered by caring guardians) as possible. That may be playing in the park, a walk to the shops feeding the ducks or kicking up the leaves.

NOT to be shoved into a narrow banded utopian nightmare called nursery school.

That applies to all two year olds 鈥� the rich ones need to learn too that foreign holidays or designer clothes are the choice of parents and not a need for the children.

#3 Entirely agree with you LC2, as Oliver James has written, children up to the age of three should remain at home with their mother or father, or a close relative, they learn nothing from nursery school etc. only how to bully and fight others when older. Two year olds squable and do not share, they pull things out of each others hands and are selfish. Presumably because they learn to be callous and uncaring very early in life, they know how to put the boot in (metaphorically) when older.

Although your description fits in with LC2, I spent both my babyhood and early childhood i'n nurseries and was already aware of what was going on around me and I do consider myself a relatively caring person now at the age of 56. I even remember when I was about 4 to 6 fighting.for a friend of mine of more or less the same age who was being attacked by a nasty . And it went on later on at school and is going on now.

LC AND LIZZY POSTER - WELL KNOWN DOUBLE ACT (various above)

What a tonic you two are! And right on the (absent) money. But when you look at who is in charge, and who is advising, regarding kids wellbeing - small wonder.

The trouble with politicians is they do not get paid by results. And if they did, they would rig them. (Oh - they already do).

WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE RULING CLASSES AND 'DISCIPLINE'? (#1 link)

On the occasions I had to discipline my boys, I felt I had failed. Good does not come from discipline, only discipline comes from discipline. Total parenting avoids the need.

Perhaps we are back to the wretched militaristic thread that runs right through this nation? Our Globopoly-playing elite, see armed adventure as 'making the man', even though he must first be broken to mindless conformity - aka discipline. As I have posted before: our pageantry from birth to death, and at all points between, is military in nature. There's another uninspected hangover from times long gone.

Good old Kipling, he made exceedingly good points.

Remember Salvador Allende book "Chile's Road to Socialism" and look upon the subsequent works and despair. (Somewhat from Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley) On page 38 of the English translation these very same mining industries were scheduled for Nationalisation to prevent the exploitation of the miners and the export of the countries wealth - Salvador Allende was right in 1973 and is still right today 37 years later and for exactly the same reasons!

The people's condition has improved a bit in recent years but still the terrible ghosts of the 'Boys from Chicago' tower over the country. The poor are still desperately poor despite all of the wealth generated by mining. If Chile had been Norway there would have been a substantial improvident in the social condition.

Chile needs to take on board the lessons of history and not reject them. This is true of all developing countries, but ask the question 'why were the lives of the miners so cheap that their safety did not matter!

#12 Yes John while watching some of this rescue, I was thinking why were men in such a precarious situation. I kept being reminded of China, I thought they lose many lives each year to mine collapse, and they appear to treat life as of little value.

Then I found this after reading your thoughts.



And yes that billanaire president must have got his money from somewhere, the Chileans?

Locally there is a Nursery, one of several, run and subsidised by the local authority.

It is on a 鈥榮ink鈥� estate.

It caters for nought to five year old children and shares the building with a 鈥淪ure-start鈥� children鈥檚 centre. It is periodically assessed by Ofsted and regularly gets good - or better - reports. All staff are qualified NVQ 2 or above thru鈥� to Degree level and are highly motivated. The Staff continually strive to work as a professional team towards high achievable standards. The Nursery is highly respected by the local community and it is all too often oversubscribed.

A large proportion of it鈥檚 鈥榗lient鈥� base i.e. children are West or East African. Some others are East European and several are from Asia. A few are of Caribbean origin. The remainder are British Caucasian.

Some children are less able - academically or physically - or 鈥榗hallenging鈥�. Some children are bright. Some are not so. The ability range stretches from top to bottom. Good behaviour and courtesy for Staff, Parents and children is the 鈥榤inimum requirement鈥� expectation and desired high level outcomes for the children is the norm.

By 鈥榬egulation鈥� it has, prominently displayed, an oft altered 鈥淕reetings鈥� board that welcomes people using a multitude of languages and dialects. It has an ever-changing library of children鈥檚 books illustrated with multi-ethnicity illustrations to demonstrate the diversity of the community. It successfully meets the remit to celebrate other religious festivals, cultures and faiths. It has ready access to Translators, via the Local Authority, of many different languages.

Some of the - immigrant - parents, and children, speak little or no English. Some speak a combination of their 鈥榤other tongue and English, some speak 鈥榓ccented鈥� English and some speak English extremely well.

Many of the mothers work. Many are Single Parents. Many attend the local FE college and many are in receipt of state benefits.

Some parents 鈥榥eed鈥� to place their children in Nursery care. Some have no choice. Some prefer to use trained staff for a multitude of reasons. Some need the 鈥榖reak鈥� and some just want to shift the 鈥榩arenting鈥� responsibility.

By virtue of the last Government half a dozen two year old children from low income stroke deprived families have 10 hours care provided free by the state as part of a national scheme.

(The Coalition have today announced what appears to be an additional five hours per week for these same children although it would appear that the Coalition are duly choosing to claim the 鈥榗redit鈥� for the entire 15 hours.)





The above described Nursery is under review for closure.

As are all the local authority Nurseries!

Can anyone explain to me why I and my family are paying tax to support children from all around the world, when the indigenous children need so much help? I know, it's because these kids have got to keep me in my old age isn't it, but then they'll need even more immigrants to keep them when they're old, as one poster said, a giant ponzi scheme. What happens when we run out of land?

PERVERSE ALBION (#16)

At General Election we are, ostensibly, able to act to achieve three things. 1) To install a local MP. 2) To vote out a local MP. 3) To vote in the party of choice.

In reality, voters only choose between ROSETTES (i.e. parties) and only in the most extreme circumstances does the 'rosette stand' candidate, make any difference to the voting numbers. Only in marginal seats, are MPs likely to be unseated, and then almost always in terms of the rosette carried. Anyone voting for a PARTY, will get whatever MP carries that rosette, even if parachuted in from several counties distant - a true rosette stand. I would not call this REPRESENTATIVE democracy.

Yet those who seek to become MPs, seem unfazed by the disgraceful picture above. They 'sign up' to a party, carry the rosette, and if successful act, for all the world, as if they are PERSONALLY chosen. What kind of mentality accepts power on those terms, and self-aggrandizes under that ethos? There are 640 of them in Westminster, and I strongly suspect there is a 1:1 link with the foregoing analysis, and a Britain that has fouled its nest, in so many ways, we are all 'in it together' - neck deep.

That the indigene is now second or third class, and that services are staffed by Manglish speakers, and that our borders are open to any number more immigrants, is surely a direct consequence of a Parliament composed of inept party ciphers?

SPOILPARTYGAMES

PARTIES COMPETE IN THEIR HIGH-PROFILE 'ETHNIC EMBRACE'

A combination of ghettos, guilt(PC) and guile, will surely lead to accelerated entry of non-indigenes into Westminster? We must pray they are a lot more altruistic and honourable than our lot, or there could be a nasty reversal of fortunes down the road. And with climate change, we could soon be growing sugar cane and cotton.

Let me start by apologising...

I am just a bit curious what is a jumper coup. I know what a jumper is - particularly as it is getting cooler now - I even own a few. And I know what a coup is. I also know what a junta is (with particular reference to Chile - the man who hid on a gold course in Surrey(?) with the help of one M. Thatcher).

I have a visions of a coup by jumpers. Being drowned in Argyle sweaters not on the golf course - how unpleasant (but far less unpleasant compared to being disappeared from a high flying aircraft without a parachute).

But how exactly do jumpers organise a coup???

Sorry....

WE ARE GOVERNED SOLELY IN THE INTEREST OF THE GOVERNING ELITE (#19)

I can't see it any other way. My post #17 (and various over the years) tries to point to the mechanism by which we get the wrong people. When scrutinised, Westminster is found wasteful, dishonest, contemptuous, arrogant and inept (add your own). Well - with the wrong people in management, that is how it has to be! Once that is accepted, all the barmy actions like: following Dubya, capitulating to the EU, getting into bed with imaginary money-dealers, succouring the lunatic end of alien religion, etc etc, makes simple sense.

It is the height of irony that our government flaps about bad parenting, at the family level, when they, being 'in loco parentis' to the nation, leave us in our soiled nappies, and push off to play Globopoly with their equally feckless chums abroad.

The majority mind has been rotted by Blair-style schooling, media manipulation, and passive pleasure; awareness and volition have atrophied. In other words 'the people' are as unsuited to rebellion as the politicians are to governance. A fine mess we have gotten ourselves into. Almost pointless to write

#19 Ah yes JA I watched that awful programme about Manila, and it's burgeoning population, increased by a third in 10 years, that's around 7 million people, the supposed amount living in London now.

If people have 10, 12 or 15 children this is exactly where you end up, no money, no land to live on, no food, or clean water. And all because the government does not make contraception freely available, in fact bans it, but it makes for a huge pool of very cheap labour, to make loads of money for that same government.

Is that what's happening to us, all around me I see hundreds of small children and pregnant women, the young school population has exploded, and still the government say or do nothing about mass immigration. Following the Philipine government I suppose, lots of cheap labour!

One of the best lines I've heard on Newsnight in recent times is the one from a pensioner broadcast on Thursday night:

"You are watching Big Society on 大象传媒 Newsnight... I fought in the war for this rubbish!"

Give the man a medal (come to think of it, give the Newsnight Production Team one too!)

Mind you, Chile is a major success in South America too. It has a 'Big Society' does it not? It certainly doesn't have a nasty, 'uncaring', 'evil', 'socialist' society like China does, the sort that 'manipulates' currency to make people everywhere else suffer. Mind you most of us thought little about the context of the Chilean mining accident, we were too enthralled by the 24/7 PR caring coverage. Here's what Wikipedia
said:

"The mine is owned by Compa帽铆a Minera San Esteban (San Esteban Mining Company), which has a poor safety record and has suffered a series of mishaps, with several workers being killed in recent years. Between 2004 and 2010, the company received 42 fines for breaching safety regulations. The mine was shut down in 2007 when relatives of a miner who had died in an accident sued company executives, but was reopened in 2008 despite failing to comply with all regulations. The matter is still under investigation according to mining committee Senator Baldo Prokurica. Due to budget constraints, there were only three inspectors for the Atacama Region's 884 mines".

That wasn't quite how it was covered though, was it?

WESTMINSTER IS SURE TO CLOSE THE SUBSIDISED BARS NOW? (#32 link1)

Twice on TV, I have seen programs that show the effect on DRIVING, of alcoholic intake. We need to see a STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT but with added alcohol. All on prime time of course.

Once again I am driven back to my main theme: ALCOHOL IS THE WARP OF THE BRITISH CULTURAL WEAVE. You know it, I know it, THEY know it. Yet the only time we have ever seen Westminster tackle a problem head-on, is now (the spending cuts) and that is because IT IS EASY. Britain is a USER NATION. When we are not celebrating with military pageantry - waving weapons - we are doping ourselves with industrial solvent - waving bottles. When we clobbered the American indigene, we took disease, arms and alcohol. When we invade Muslim countries, they have already got our arms (free trade) they get disease from depleted Uranium and other legitimate weapons, AND NOW JUST WATCH US DESTROY THEM WITH ALCOHOL when the war is 'won'.

Decisive Dave could step in and say: 'CLOSE ALL BARS', like 'RESCUE THE WOMAN' or 'SEVEN PERCENT'. He remains oddly silent over alcohol. I wonder if stamping on the head sharpens the mind . . .

The key word is revulsion. And it applies, for me, to our politicians.
