In another fine display of fiscal rectitude, it has been revealed that the taxpayer is spending more than £15million to send the children of British diplomats and military officer to private schools. These include Blair’s alma mater Fettes College, Winchester, Roedean and Marlborough.

Apparently the fees can amount to £22,000 a year, pretty much the annual salary of a nurse or schoolteacher. These payments continue even when overseas staff return to the UK!
