MPs are paid £60,000 plus expenses for a mere 160 days’ work a year. These expenses routinely climb year on year and this year averaged some £136,000. I would therefore contend that MPs are actually paid nearly £200,000 plus, of course, a very generous final salary pension scheme

Our children should never suffer.
Children & & their education are the future and should be given every opportunity to flourish in society. Take the money out of something else which would have a positive effect, not a detrimental one. (i.e, tobacco & alcohol for health reasons.) Think again!
Give children & schools every possible chance that they deserve.
