19 Prime Ministers went to Eton

Is this a problem or not? Do you think that having a private education is an advantage when going into politics?

Do you think that Prime Ministers' education should even be a topic of discussion? For example, David Cameron and Boris Johnson went to Eton then Oxford while Jeremy Corbyn and Sadiq Khan went to state schools and then London Metropolitan University.

I don't know if its an advantage but rich people always win and so yeah it would make sense that private education has a link to winning in life.
I'd quite like to see Corbyn elected just so London Met could say that they've produced a Prime Minster. :tongue:
