Mind The Grammar

Articles in the right-wing press calling for grammar schools are suddenly all the rage.

For donkey’s years, the party of the Treaty of Rome, the Single European Act and the Maastricht Treaty has been allowing people to assume that it was somehow less than rabidly Eurofederalist merely because of the articles that appeared in those papers.

And now, the party of Margaret Thatcher, which recently, and entirely true to form, voted for a Government Bill to ban the creation of any more grammar schools, seems to be trying to pull off much the same trick a second time.

Be not deceived.
