Excellent interview on bbc from Andy Burnham this morning about the unfair, discrimintory & shambolic A level results process. The government must U turn or face legal action to represent the thousands of young people affected!

On 73 occasions, Jeremy Corbyn has signed a written Parliamentary Motion condemning Iran, Russia & Syria. Today, the Tories rather predictably accuse Jeremy of being pro-Russia, pro-Iran & pro-Syria. A free & fearless press would expose their smear for what it is.
