When the left were claiming to support the rise of the 'meritocracy' in their anti grammar school campaigns - it was just hot air.
The abolition of grammar schools removed the best way forward for working class children and ever since they have had to try everything short of restoration to repair the disastrous consequences of their idealistic bitterness.
So now, those with best results must take a backward step because of the class they happen to come from.
Pure evil!
