Today I got on a bus just as the schools were coming out, so a group of Muslim schoolgirls with their hijabs got on the bus ahead of me. I sat behind a white middle-aged-ish guy with a very loud voice and heard him say to his friends “Look at ‘em, just out of school and they’ve already got -” bracing myself for the inevitable – “long faces! DON’T CHILDREN JUST HATE SCHOOL?!” Then he just started talking about schooling and education. Leicesterians have still not let me down, good on them
