I have a different starting premise from those 100 academics who are so heavily invested in the regime of low expectations and narrow horizons which they have created.

It is a belief in human potential that has guided me through my time in Government.

Whatever else I know, I know that if you invest love and care in any individual you can help them to make a difference, to write their own life story.

The British people voted for change.They sent us a clear instruction that they want Britain to leave the European Union and end the supremacy of EU law.

I think that the message I have of optimism and hope about Britain's bright future outside the European Union is shared by many Conservative members and voters - indeed by a majority of the country.

There are huge challenges ahead for this country but also huge opportunities. We can make this country stronger and fairer.

I think it's appropriate that we simplify, clarify and strengthen, so instead of this nebulousness, we have clarity and authority invested in teachers once more.
