        @mmaxwellscott has labelled school funding crisis as hyperbole and union shrill. He is entrenched in Tory dogma on grammar schools.

        Tory dogma?! Ask Tom Brake about Grammar schools - one of his children attends one so he must approve.

        Has Tom Brake defied Tim Farron on LD grammar schools policy? Oh yes. Just because his constituency has grammars. Guess where his boy goes? pic.twitter.com/ZUXeO3TGx4
