I have to admit to coming out of the Lib Dem debate on 5-19 education feeling somewhat perplexed. After a complicated series of four amendments wrangling over the same bunch of lines, what the party has come up with seemed to be little more than a state commissioned figleaf scheme.

An extra £2bn in education spending on Britain's most disadvantaged four- to six-year-olds will be a key Liberal Democrat demand in the event of a hung parliament, rather than their traditional call for electoral reform, Nick Clegg says. In a Guardian interview, the Lib Dem leader claimed that the British class system is so entrenched it is equivalent to a caste society. He said pro...
