THE latest government U-turn on exam results shows that they can be made to change course. Of course, they cannot even perform that without leaving chaos and huge disruption in people’s lives, in this case young people either going on to further studies or about to enter the workforce. This simply confirms their bias in favour of the rich and very highly paid and their disregard for ordinary people.
Even so, there is now a string of these U-turns and we must draw the most important conclusions from them — that if we oppose this government effectively, if we put forward policies to benefit ordinary people and if we mobilise a movement around them, we can win. The stakes are very high, as both lives and livelihoods are at risk.
