One law for them...

Can I add my name to the list of those expressing annoyance (or even anger) at the fact that a Headmaster of a primary school in Leicester has taken a fortnight off in term time - apparently so he can go to Brazil and watch the World Cup.  Given that he seems to be a good Head, and assuming that appropriate arrangements were made to cover his absence, you might think that there's little wrong with that, but of course the negative emotions arise from the fact that parents are now forbidden from taking their children out of school to go on holiday - indeed for any reason - on pain of being heavily fined.  So it's "Do as I say, not do as I do"?
