I also don't know where this "people on the left like the eu" thing came about either, because there is quite a lot of euroscepticism among socialists and especially communists actually.

Do you think politics should be part of senior schools national curriculum ? Politics play such a big part in our life whether we know it or not.

I've never been a supporter of the national curriculum, but it would be a necessary evil if we were to start teaching politics as one of the main subjects.
