The country's full of gobsh!te idle lefties.
I always thought you probably didn't live in UK coz you seem to have zero idea about the British.
Our country is full of people who voted for lower taxes, brexit, strong and stable government.
We voted to take back control, to stop the boats, to reverse mass immigration.
We voted for affordable housing, low inflation, a chance to get an education and make a comfortable life.
We voted for crime free streets, we voted for a thriving economy, we voted for a GREAT Britain.
and now you think all those things are left wing.
F.U.

Kids need to learn to be good and functional members of society. A society that gifts them so much. Free healthcare, free education, rights, law and order. Doing a little charity work should be party of their education.
This has been mentioned a few times, but no. When you say "gifted" you mean the majority will pay ever rising taxes for the best part of their next 50 years. If the state does not provide healthcare, education, law and order, pension then you don't pay tax. Those 18yo as collective will pay (over their lifetimes ) a massive multiple on what they've received in education and healthcare. Basing it on history, it will be enough to cover illegal wars abroad, billions on friends for unusable apps and equipment etc, and pay the interest on previous generations' borrowing.
It's a bit like getting trained when you start a new job. They don't do it so they can gift you education. They do it so you can make them more money over time.
