‘Catastrophic’: White working-class kids in UK failed by education system
Spiked Online Chief Political Reporter Brendan O’Neill weighs in on a recent inquiry which found white working-class children are falling behind in the UK school system. “It’s catastrophic, I mean, white working-class boys in particular have been falling behind for so long in education, they’re doing worse than almost any other group,” Mr O’Neill told Sky News host Jaimee Rogers. “They’ve been left behind, they’ve been discarded, and I think this is the end result of the politics of identity. “It’s really horrible what’s happened to these kids … you are taught to hate yourself, you’re taught to hate your country.”
