DEMOCRATS, TAKE NOTE:
Tories propose more faith schools (BBC, 4/13/05)
The Conservatives say they want to see "perhaps thousands" more faith schools.Education spokesman Tim Collins says a commitment to a major expansion of religious schools "is absolutely at the heart of the Conservative vision".
He says Christian, Jewish and Islamic schools have higher standards and a stronger ethos than secular schools.
Labour is committed to allowing faith schools where residents want them; the Lib Dems have denied the "myth" that they want to halt their development.
Interesting that all three parties are on the same side.

Sure, the Conservatives want whatever Christian votes are left, the Lib Dems want the Jewish money they think controls the world and the Labour party wants the new Islam votes they plan on importing as needed.
