Nick Clegg's "Commission on Inequality in Education" 2017. Yet another irrelevant excuse for the great and the good to hobnob and produce nothing of any import for a thinktank based in Millbank Tower.

It was in the financial times on 5th February, but if it only appears in paywalled newspapers like the FT, the national, and the Sunday times, then of course it’s harder for it to get greater traction.
