There is the right person there. He has been there biding his time. All the King of the North needs is a safe seat to become an MP and then change the direction as this is not any Labour party I recognise.

Have a look at all the buyer tax breaks to get a Tesla. It's not just a plug in grant but a host of overlapping tax breaks or subsidies.

The 11+ still exists in some areas. This was a grammar school or university entrance exam at 11 so not a choice a test. It as you kind of imply excluded some bright children not prepared for the exam. 14 all young people chose a path but we need a different destination not different paths to uni.

So Technical Levels? That has crashed and burned. A disaster where huge capital grants were lashed out and little learning with them has been done. No connection between education and work for anyone in education including university graduates. Look at your teaching workforce and facilities too.
