So when the saving of £2billion was announced I was with my teacher friend and we burst out laughing. It is 100,000 x £20,000= £2billion<br /><br />My guess is that the cost of a teaching Asst. is about £20k including overheads. See, it all adds up. Would you expect anything less from Balls. He thought ahead, announced the TA's so that in a couple of months he could announce a cut in the education budget so he could say to his fellow ministers, "now follow my lead". What a game politics is. Oh how we laugh!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-75175941172004670842009-11-17T13:23:20.759+00:002009-11-17T13:23:20.759+00:00Ed Balls all over the place and not having a clue ...Ed Balls all over the place and not having a clue what he's talking about?
