Rishi Sunak has decided the best way to win the election is to be the “change” candidate – his first change is the approach to net zero.
He also wants to change education. That’s good news, for in the 1980s as the education secretary I was only able to bring in major reforms with the support of Margaret Thatcher.
Change today must recognise the real and urgent needs of British industry for their future employees to have technical and practical skills, particularly digital and data.
