Did not think Theresa May performed very well at PMQs today, think her problem is when she started shouting at the opposition she put on her thatcher serpent mask, she looked just as evil as TOC did ,when she was PM.

"She sounds so like thatcher !!!!" - could do a lot worse than emulate TGL!
According to the OP she is not TGL but TOC (The Old Cow).
mikey: ".if Comprehensive Schools are holding bright kids back, why are so many more going to College now" - because the colleges etc are full of mickey mouse courses in non subjects.

I don't like May when she gets her 'shouty style' on and I don't trust her either. She is trying to emulate Mrs. T. but is not of the same ilk i.m.o..

Re. Education. We have specialist art, music and science schools. Why not a specialist 'academic' school? Mistake is in using the word 'Grammar.

Talking of schools, I was in yesterday to pick up the kids whose reading needs enhancing yesterday.

Believe me, I am faced with immense challenges this term. The school has no resources to deal with these children. There is one boy whose reading age is 6-and-a-bit and 2 others who are only just over 7. These children are 11 years old and none have been diagnosed with any particular problem such as dyslexia. I've asked daughter (grandson is 7) to pass on reading books.
The term 'grammar' originally referred to Latin and Greek grammar.
One doesn't have to be an "anti-British lefty" to think May failed in PMQs today. One simply has to have watched it. She was thrashed.

I would rather she be her own self than trying to emulate Thatcher.
In your opinion jim, I don't agree, Corbyn was slapped down several times especially over state of the "leadership" fiasco.
In my opinion and that of the rest of the country, it seems...

I know that PMQs is, despite the name, not really about answering questions, but Theresa May took that to some new heights today. Starting right off the bat, with the wonderfully subtle, "I'm not going to answer that question," before continuing to not answer questions at all. "Can you name any evidence, or an expert opinion, supporting the success of Grammar schools for children at large?" "Well, *I* went to Grammar school and I turned out OK."

The put-down about Leadership is called man-not-ball, and while it's a common feature in PMQs it's generally employed only when the PM has nothing useful to say in defence of their own position. And besides, she's wrong: Corbyn's going to win the leadership election.

The Grammar School policy (and the 100% restrictive faith schools policy, which is a travesty that doesn't deserve to be hidden in brackets) is a step in the wrong direction in its current form and will, at the very least, need some serious reworking.
Haven't seen PMQT ... Thrashed by who?
Can't have been by any of the two buffoons I have just watched on Sky.

Jackdaw at 20:53, Mikey doesn’t understand academia – nor the difference between ‘then’ and ‘than'.
What really matters is at the Ballot Box not at the Despatch Box...
A decent debat, why why the need to make personal insults Naomi ?
Anne...its what people do when they are in danger of losing the argument.
anneasquith, stating a fact is not a personal insult. Despite Mikey’s education clearly having been less than best, he nevertheless denies those brighter than himself opportunity. That was the point I was making.
Hardly relevant to the thread though Naomi ?
