MP NEEDS TO GET FACTS RIGHT

I see the MP is claiming that it "appears" Government civil servants put pressure on elected members of the Council to reorganise the Island's school system, without any evidence for that claim. Clearly he is so beleagued these days - or is that bepughed ? - that he needs to find some way of justifying why his Tory '"allies" on the Council are so entirely juxtaposed to his views on our school system.

If only he had asked the Council's own Director of Childrens Services first, who told my Labour colleague that,

"I can assure that that I do not feel pressurised and have not conveyed that to the political leadership. This is very much about local decision making within a national framework."
