  Sue. You really don’t have to keep saying about the electoral system a) we all know about it b) it doesn’t matter FPTP is the system we have always had and hopefully we will get rid of it someday but it is what it is when anyone suggests changing the system Corbyn is right there at the front of the queue to prevent it so its pointless him or any of supporters complaining about it the evidence you want is the result of the elections. You can’t have clearer evidence.

  Has anyone from the school commented? Have they said why? Is it a fresh start? Is it that Grove in the name may have connotations of wealth and they want to attract more applicants from a wider area? Is that it currently is linked to the DKH Estate?

  As you quite rightly say a sample of 500 is extremely small. (actually unrepresentative in the scheme of things) Now corbyn has his own party or should that be Party, it'll be interesting to see if it is merely a "think tank" or if it contests seats and then if they win any and if they chase currently held seats by Labour. It'll be even more amusing if it unseats current Labour Ministers though.
