I don't care where the tories send their kids to school. Grammars do not benefit the majority or contribute to social mobility

rubbish. All children regardless of background will benefit from grammar. Denying it, is championing failure.

* 11 yr old

do you think the Olympic team should train with people who can barely get off the sofa too?

what% of the population are you happy to damn to life of couch potato at age 11?

-
no, issue is that Olympians need to train at a higher standard than, say, me. Same for bright kids

I try to get my son into our local grammar school, because it has the best results. I'm against more GSs. So no, not a hypocrite.

He lives next to local comp (30 secs). Get him back on!!
-
does he really? He said one of the grammars was his nearest school.

Of course he may have moved after his kids started, but ask him if lives next to Archway

Tory MPs full of hypocrisy, take @JacobReesMoggMP and this storypic.twitter.com/gJHEGlb8WE

Not really ironic when he owns the home whereas benefit claimants don't.

he's getting his bedrooms paid for, claimants with disabled son must pay extra
