End Private Privilege for Public Servants.

Ban all government ministers and senior civil servants from using private schools for their children or private healthcare for themselves or their families. They must endure the systems they impose — with exceptions only for urgent national security.

Background
Senior government ministers and civil servants must use the same public healthcare and education services as the citizens they govern, regardless of role. This ensures they experience the real impact of their decisions. Exceptions must be rare, for genuine security or critical national need only. Leaders must live with the systems they create — and be accountable for failures.
