    This must surely be a joke - Toby the Tory Young appointed to the Office for Students? He is to Education what many think the Pozzos are to football, having sacked as many Head Teachers at his school over the last few years as the Pozzos have sacked Head Coaches...

    And his thoughts on children are 'pure Tory'-

    If Gove is serious about wanting to bring back O levels, the Government will have to repeal the Equality Act because any exam that is 'accessible' to a functionally illiterate troglodyte with a mental age of six will be judged to be elitist and therefore forbidden...'
    A disgusting piece of non-humanity.

    It wouldn't surprise me if he includes dyslexics in that.

    From the New Year's Honours List - meet Sir Christopher Chope, knighted for his political and public service.

    Said service included:

    *Responsible for the Poll Tax legislation;
    *Attempted to abolish the minimum wage;
    *Knee deep in the expenses scandal - claimed £136K, including £880 for a sofa repair bill;
    *Used taxpayer monies to host a get together at Westminster for climate change deniers;
    *Tried to shut down a debate in Commons on the Hillsborough disaster;
    *Refers to House of Commons staff as servants;
    *Filibustered out a bill which would have abolished hospital parking charges for carers.

    And they have the cheek to call that 'service'. <grr>

    Am almost speechless at the sheer stupidity of this - and the fact that they think no-one will notice when they do this sort of thing.

    "The Tory politician demanding police take homeless people off the streets ahead of the Royal Wedding is a paid director of a government agency that’s supposed to be tackling rough sleeping"

    Who the hell votes these people in?

    This is exactly the sort of nonsense that American politicians get up to on a much grander scale. Makes my blood boil - they are elected to serve us not to serve themselves! <grr>:steam:

    For anyone wondering why Labour do so badly in Scotland these days, this might give a broad hint. :)

    Given that a lot of homeless people were formerly in the armed services, I wonder if he ran this past Harry?

    There really isn't a lot you can say about this - apart from "so typically Tory..." :(

    A burka ban in public is a very good idea. We should follow France and Austria's lead. A partial ban is enforced in Spain, Italy, Turkey and Holland.

    I would ban the two faced clique highlighted by W-Y, especially those that still wear moccasins. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Did you see that he referred to himself as 'Govey' in an interview? <laugh>

    Apparently he's jealous of BoJo having a nickname...

    You'd think he would have followed the same process and arrived at MiGo - given that he believes it's his turn for a shot at being PM...:)

    Gove has proved to be an excellent minister in complete contrast to the lightweights in the current Scottish administration.
