Feck New Labour

I just mean I wouldn't say only they had, all exams have been mucked about with by Govts of both persuasion,however for me anyway, saying exams have been dumbed down is not good for the young people who have sat them and passed them by putting in the effort needed.
To claim exams are easier paints a negative look on the exams passed by those taking them and casts a cloud on their hard work to pass them.

It actually annoys me that in this day and age the 3 main parties of the UK still use childrens education as a political football, that is really what annoys me as to party politics too, they should leave some things alone and always have consensus on some issues,such as education.

Stop this nonsense of one party getting into power and mucking about with education this way, then the other party getting in and changiing things again another way.Going to and fro like this with peoples education and futures is childish and ridiculous and both the major parties in particular are equally to blame for it,neither is any better than the other.
