Labour could really make a big dent in the Tories on education if their narrative was:
Reform of the school system (academy's are simply not working)
Removing public schools from their charity status bullshit
All edu is free to degree level.
You can't trust the backstabbing Tories on uni fees
etcAnd then wrap that up in becoming a global centre of excellence for education, research, etc...

Yet he's still less popular than Jeremy Corbyn in 2017.
It's a dire situation he really needs to turn around. He won't win the manufactured "culture war" and shouldn't even try.
He needs to do something though, perhaps on education where the Tories have been absolutely shambolic for the last two years and where the latest big idea is to take away phones because Williamson has decided based on absolutely nothing that behaviour is probably bad, and that creating a furore around phones might distract people from the exam shambles and his ideas about making teachers in a demoralised profession where 1/3 want to leave work longer hours with shorter holidays.
