Livinginthepast Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 I see that the next Prime Minister went to school at the West Primary in the 70's. There are therefore three things I know about her for certain: 1. She knows her times-tables up to 12, no problem. 2 She's been belted. 3. She doesn't get why the new stadium is not called Love Street. I therefore urge anyone with a Conservative party membership to give her your vote.

ianmac Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 It really annoys when when she says that during her school years in Paisley and Leeds kids were being badly let down. She seems to conveniently forget that all through these years it was a Conservative government running the country. And how did Sunak's parents running a local Pharmacy manage to afford to send their kid to Winchester School? Current fees £46k per annum. I think playing up their 'hard working families' backgrounds is pushing it a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or could that have been something to do with her father being a Professor of Mathematics. What a deprived background she came from........

Or maybe one of the things that she learned at the West was the value of hard work and dedication. Like so many of her fellow Alumni at that famous primary.

I went to Castlehead HS which opened in 1971 When the time came for me to start secondary the 4 year old school was overcrowded so they took over half of the West for my year Only time we got to the “big school” in 1st year was for PE then we moved there for 2nd year onwards I can’t remember if it was a one off or if it affected pupils starting in the years after us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
