So do you think communities are infinitely more skilled at running schools and hospitals rather than people who work in those areas. What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander - Cameron was dismissive of Brown for saying that he knew better than businessmen how to kickstart the economy.

Now Dave is wanting to hand over control of our health and well being to the unqualified. Why not take it further and let anybody who fancies a shot be a surgeon for a day or so?

I agree with you on one thing. Only an idiot would think that they would form part of the government. At least Dave knows his target demographic then.
Ignoring your melodramatic fiction on what's being proposed, I was going to try and give a serious answer on the merits of parent-managed schools and how it has been proven to improve failing schools but as I'm evidently an idiot, I'll leave it be.

I will say though, if you seriously think that anyone is suggesting that headteachers, surgeons or, in fact, any professional is replaced by someone who isn't suitably qualified, we might have to revise who the idiot is.

If you're that way inclined, have a read of all the manifestos. It won't change your mind but you might learn a few things all the same.
