Come on lets be honest. The reality outside of the political tent is not who wins the Labour Party Deputy Leadership contest ( most peoples reaction is “Quite frankly who cares??!!” ) if my office is anything to go by many more people are interested in what will happen in Big Brother. It is a bit too early to speculate on who will win but, who will be the first to be evicted? Shabnam I think.
By the way, talking of Big Brother I will pose a question ” What is the link between Big Brother and the Meatloaf Concert I went to ? ”

Answer to quiz question:
The link must be something to do with George Orwell or 1984 – Big Brother is from the novel 1984 and I assume that there is a Meatloaf song linked to either George Orwell or “1984”.
Go on then David. What is the link?
Dear Member of the Public,
It is precisely because the Conservatives want to improve education for all our children that we are proposing the present policy. There is no war on grammar schools. THose schools that remain will continue and as has recently ben made clear may increase in number. In the thousands of schools which are not Grammar schools we want to see more setting and streaming i. I can imagine the outcry if the Conservative Party were to propose a return to the 11+ for all pupils. I am certainly not a ‘ Liberal Etonian from a silver spoon background ‘ and of course I support the aims of our education policy.
Have the old Etonians running the Conservative Party now declared war on grammars as part of their latest venture to capture votes? Graham Brady MP was forced to resign over is stance on Grammar Schools. Has the Conservative Party these days has no place for people of modest background, even those as able and courageous as Graham Brady? I suppose there’s another way of looking at it – a bunch of insufferable toffs accusing ordinary parents who aspire to grammar schools of entrenching privilege. The stench of hypocrisy is made even worse because not only are Tory MPs overwhelmingly privately educated, but they invariably choose private and fiercely selective schools for their own children. No “entrenched privilege” there then is there? The message to ordinary people is clear selective education is far too good for the likes of you lot! The remaining 164 or so grammar schools are among the best performing schools in the country. You would think they would be nurtured and encouraged as an example to others. Instead they are persecuted and vilified by an unholy alliance of envious class warriors from the left, and liberal Etonians from silver-spoon backgrounds. Is there no party prepared to stand up for the ordinary working parents in the middle like many people in Bury, Ramsbottom and Tottington who simply want to send their children to a good school? Apparently not.
Answer me this. Do you agree with David Cameron on this issue or not?
