Caitriona Pops The Question

Mark Devenport | 11:56 UK time, Tuesday, 4 March 2008

The Education Minister came to the Assembly this morning with a statement on area based planning in education, which the DUP's Mervyn Storey had criticised her Leap Day Spinster for failing to deliver by the end of February. In comparison to her previous appearances, the mood at the start of her statement was warm, with the Education Chair Sammy Wilson thanking the minister for a briefing she had provided in advance. It almost sounded like a love-in as the minister joked about not having made a proposal leap day. But Mervyn Storey was having none of the new bonhomie, accusing her of plotting a "shotgun wedding" and warning her that "the mood music is still no different in relation to the matters outstanding" on academic selection.

Daily we hear the debate on Education.The D.U.P. told us on coming from St.Andrews that they had the future of our children's education sorted. We all know that it was not education that the Paisley's went to sort out, but rather the interests of one North Anrim planner of whom they had "heard of" .
