I seen the following tweet from Jayne McCormack (BBC) earlier:
“The social engineering being put forward by Sinn Fein, the Sdlp and alliance party has to stop,” - @DUPleader
doesn’t rule out deploying cross-community vote tomorrow if SF call a vote on the transfer test, and she hopes UUP would “see the need to protect academic selection”
Why would unionists be more inclined to retain academic selection? I had assumed nationalists (with pressure from CCMS) would have had more affinity to academic selection and the retention of grammar schools.
