Forgive me if I'm missing something here, but isn't it public school children that need them the most? Am I forgetting about some group of poor needy private schoolers that need support or they'll just drop out and become drug dealers?
In UK-style countries we have state schools and public schools. Public schools are actually private but they weren't when they started. The only schools were originally for rich kids. Eton was founded to teach poor kids so it's a public school, whereas true schools-for-everyone came later and are provided by the state.
Howard was a real c**t who lied us into illegal wars with Iraq & then Afghanistan, which ended up lasting 20 years with us losing to backwards desert tribals. All we accomplished there was blowing up weddings & school buses. If anything, they were too easy on him.
and the students who did get laptops were the ones who deserved them the least (art students, year 8s and 9s). i had to study for exams and shit back then and a laptop (at school) really would have helped
