Christine Blower, general secretary of the NUT, appears to be ready to cause chaos in the classroom. So it follows for many of our major unions.

The difference in 2010 is that many people have had to put up with an unprecedented level of belt-tightening and, I believe, will not support these left-wing troublemakers.

There’s a feeling of ‘so what, we’ll do it ourselves, we don’t need you’ as it becomes possible to set up your own schools and many people have discovered a whole range of things they can do for themselves without interfering Public Sector jobsworths.

They should heed the message, we are heartily sick and tired of your whining.

So, either dig in and help or get lost.
