Trust the mail and Gb news to pretend this is a real issue.
30 seconds of reading makes it clear that this is a document with lots of other stuff, suggested as a resource. Not Councils tellign anyone to do anything. Furthermore, even the mail are honest enough to note that the suggestion is the use of a boardgame metaphor. Like playing monopoly with extra cash for white kids. Not an instruction to do so. Its a very obvious and simple way of explaining a concept to young children and entirely reasonable.
The dishonesty of these media sources is going to be the downfall of our society because people are not critical thinkers and will retweet and absorb this as if it were accurate.

Tory Donor Version - you are given loads of extra money which you hide from other players in a 'trust fund' that doesnt pay tax and you can just use however
Rachel Reeves Version - you complain the last players left you with too little money and just take it from the poorest players in the current game
Arab Prince Version - buy mayfair and park lane, never go to prison and assassinate any opponent

I enjoyed the irony of them sitting there questioning the worth of public sector employees while getting paid to make stuff up for bigots to watch online.

how about a class based version where you get more monopoly money etc if your family is well off in real life? it's rather racist to pretend that there aren't middle class and upper class bame people.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

The Liz Truss version where you borrow £200 from the player to the right of you (Mr A Hitler, in her case) and they borrow £200 from the player to right of them and so on.
Nobody pays £200 in taxes at all, ever again, and "well, obviously..." everyone gets richer. "I know!"

Margaret Thatcher version. Discard all the community chest cards, because there's no such thing as community.

If you buy the water board, when people land on it you charge them a huge sum of money and have a dump in their pond.

Trump Version - you are the greatest ever player. You can ignore all the rules, claim to own any property without having any money and if you lose you throw a tantrum hurling the board across the room claiming that you were robbed

Only buy one house due to the huge rise in SDLT on subsequent purchases.

2024 New Labour Version.
"Your rich auntie passed away and left you a large sum of money but Keir Starmers govt take most of it. Collect £10 from the bank"
"School Fees. Lose £30000"
"You wrote something hurtful on X. Go straight to jail."

"Blueas is a great guy, one of the best." - Donald Trump
Surely their version of the game is everybody going round and round the board, paying rent to that top-hatted, moustache wearing Tory Mr Monopoly, never able to afford to actually buy anything, having to pay more and more for services, with every card you can pick up having to pay some sort of fine or tax until every player dies?
