I always analyse what the Leader of the Opposition puts to me, but nothing can gainsay the fact that this education announcement made by the government has been applauded across all sectors of education. Some of the vice-chancellors have said that it is far ahead of anything they ever dreamt of receiving. The truth is that the Leader of the Opposition, who has talked long and hard about an education revolution, now finds himself in the embarrassing position that this government has done far more for education than he has ever promised to do. That is the dilemma of the Leader of the Opposition.
