"I don't want to send my child to a concentration camp"

Metro: Fury as naughty pupils locked in cupboard

Luxury.

When I was a kid, they'd stick us in t'coalhole and keep us there for a whole week just for speaking out of turn before flogging us within an inch of our lives. And we were thankful if they spared our lives.

(And a big "Up yours" to the Clacton and Frinton Gazette for not bothering to put pictures on their website)
