Good Old Boy #36

From the Q&A with Gordon Brown, Labour Party members were given the chance to ask questions about education policy. What would they choose to focus on?

"Ms Frostrup asks for questions about education. It's three questions at a time.

A delegate from Richmond, North Yorkshire, begins unpromisingly by saying his question is not really about education. Ms Frostrup is not impressed.
He says that rural communities are in trouble and he wants acknowledgement of support for Labour members in his area.

We're now on to the Freedom Pass (free bus passes for pensioners in London) and whether Mr Brown would extend it to the rest of the country."
