Department For Children, Schools And Families: Anti-England Bias Seeps Out - Even Though It Is Supposed To SERVE England

Gareth has received a reply in answer to his freedom of information request regarding the Department of Children, Schools And Families (which covers England only) and its sudden removal of the name of the country it covers from its mission statement.

Remember? From this (emphasis is mine):

"The purpose of the Department for Children, Schools and Families is to make England the best place in the world for children and young people to grow up."

To this (emphasis is mine):

"The purpose of the Department for Children, Schools and Families is to make this the best place in the world for children and young people to grow up."

Extract from Gareth's reply:

Mr Young

Thank you for your email of 11 November asking why the word 'England'
has been replaced with the word 'this' on the Department's website.

You made your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. As you
are not seeking access to recorded information I have not dealt with
your request as a Freedom of Information request.

The Department's overall purpose was set out in the Children's Plan,
published in December 2007. In that document the Secretary of State made
clear that 'our aim is to make this the best place in the world for our
children and young people to grow up.' The words set out on the home
page of our website are intended as a close match to the original
expression, and were adjusted as part of routine editing of the website.

This doesn't make sense at all. The extent of the territory covered should be explicit somewhere on the Department's home page. And where better than in the mission statement?

And that territory is England.

A very strange reply indeed.

Looks like awful Ed Balls might be involved... Read Gareth's latest here.

Department For Children, Schools And Families Erases England - We Are Now Called "This"!

Gareth Young has discovered political and racist goings-on at the Department for Children, Schools And Families.

This "department" covers England only, and its mission statement used to read (emphasis is mine):

"The purpose of the Department for Children, Schools and Families is to make England the best place in the world for children and young people to grow up."

Nice and clear, eh? A nice, clear statement with a commendable goal.

But now the statement reads (emphasis is mine):

"The purpose of the Department for Children, Schools and Families is to make this the best place in the world for children and young people to grow up."

This is worrying on two fronts:

1) It makes the area covered by the department unclear. Where on earth is "this"?

2) It opens up a whole can of worms about the New Labour project - including devolution, the West Lothian Question, anti-England/English racism and the Barnett Formula. The mission statement of the Department for Children, Schools And Families is now unclear. Somebody has been in there, muddying the waters, simply by "cleansing" out the word "England". And that also would seem to be a prime concern of "our" Government in its attempts to delude the people of England.

Education Spending Is Much Higher In Scotland Than In England, Reports The BBC. But It Only Tells The Scots. And Then Andrew Castle Tells Lies...

The BBC reveals...

Each school pupil in Scotland receives hundreds of pounds more in education funding than those in England, figures for 2005/06 have revealed.

Almost 12% more was spent on primary school pupils north of the border compared with those in England.

At secondary level, the rate of spending was 24% higher in Scotland.

Bizarrely, the BBC seems to think that this news is of no interest in England! It is only reported on the BBC Scotland page -

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/6959215.stm

Surely it's in the English public's interests to know? But no, reported in Scotland it encourages loyalty to the "Union" - another example of unfair advantage; reported in England it encourages parents to ask why their children are second class citizens.

And the BBC wouldn't want the people of England discovering the truth and wanting a fair deal, would it?

Perhaps the news explains this other BBC Scottish education story -

UPDATE:

There was a report on the BBC Lunchtime News. It was absolutely amazing propaganda. The piece made out that the stupid English actually choose to fund their education system lower and that Tuition Fees were decided by English MPs, not Westminster MPs representing Scottish constituencies, overturning the will of our elected representatives. The Barnett Formula was not mentioned. "It's up to the English what they spend their money on," said one sniffy and highly superior Scot. um, no. What about Tuition Fees? 

There is no national English Parliament, non-representative Scottish and Welsh MPs, some steeped in hatred and one-sided revisionism and daft legends (they are not 'Celts'), vote on our legislation, and we don't benefit from the Barnett Formula - declared unfair to England, the UK's most ethnically diverse country, even proportionally, by its own creator, Lord Joel Barnett, as it provides more money per capita on NATIONAL lines outside of England.

People ACROSS the whole of England, including poor areas from Newcastle to Great Yarmouth, suffer from lower per capita spending. The 'regions' do not exist. They are just something the UK Government uses to pull the wool over our eyes.

Millionaires in Scotland and Wales don't pay for prescriptions, and have far better funding for health and education.

But the Barnett Formula is graded. Scotland gets more than Wales, and benefitted from a previous formula before Barnett's creation in 1978.

The Northern Ireland situation is rather more complex, but as the country was partitioned by a Welsh PM, with avid backing of Protestant Scots MPs, one can see that the situation was not just created by the 'evil English'

The whole report, by education "expert" Andrew Castle, was a downright lie, seeking to cuckold. The BBC is getting worse.
