What successful reform did Gove put into place?
Gove is hated by the teaching unions, and the public sector in general, precisely because he did achieve successful reform.He removed the power of the LEAs and gave school's far more freedom to run their own affairs, if they choose to do so.
Parents can recognise the differences between individual schools (and make decisions accordingly) and will hold national governments accountable for funding, curriculum, exams etc. Successful schools should be given the freedom to flourish, with sufficient oversight to ensure public money is properly spent and that minimum standards are adhered too.

I thought as an interviewer Sophie was useless......
Ah c'mon she asked the PM what she thought of the President elect saying he could grab "women by the pussy" I was surprised to say the least, but yeah I think Faisal Islam would have done a better job.Esseesse said:

As far as I can tell she's saying we're leaving the EU, the ECJ, and the U.K. Parliament will have the final say on immigration policy set by the UK govt, when challenged on membership of the single market, she doesn't answer the question (implying she does not expect we will be IMO), but talks about business being able (to access it, presumably on the best terms that can be negotiated IMO) to trade with EU countries, and those terms (tariff, tariff free, the size of any tariffs) is up for negotiation.

Oh I see why Sky are now showing the pussy grabbing segment at some length in its "highlights" in the news bulletin, Ridge embarrassed to ask, qualifying it with a pretext about championing women, May slightly red faced, embarrassed to be asked about pussy grabbing, don't think Ridge is going to get scoops and big interviews going forward with cheap questions like that. Would Marr or Neil read out the quote and ask her about it? I don't think so. Bit cheap.
