Hard to have an opinion on that really. It depends what's necessary. Uniforms are necessary,
00:08
but is there any flexibility with the schools in what the kids wear to school? Does it have to be
00:15
the branded uniforms? I think they're looking at relaxing the rules on that so kids can afford
00:23
more cheaper kind of generic uniform clothing. So I think that's a positive thing. Well I think 40
00:31
to 60 pounds for a school blazer is ridiculous and they throw it out of them within the year,
00:36
so yeah and things like that. But then you can go to places like Asda and you can pick up a uniform
00:42
like 20 quid, like back in the day, I don't know if it's in here, but it's those schools that insist on
00:48
having the badges, why can't they just sell the badges and we can get a second hand blazer
00:53
from wherever, you know, that's what I'm saying.
