Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : It begins to gnaw away at some unjustified tax reliefs, such as subsidies for private schools, to pay for state school teachers, when there has been "a massive widening in the private/state differential in education funding", according to the IFS.
46% : Public services are stretched beyond bearing; the latest deficit figures show the gap between tax collected and public spending is still rising.
