I never underestimate anyone.

I've praised some of Peter Britcliffe's ideas in the past. Others, which I think are stupid and costly, I'll happily criticise.

I've said before that as a teacher the children loved him.

Although he was at Moor End Primary when I was there, he didn't teach me. Pity really. It would have been a nice consolation for him, knowing he'd help educate his fiercest critic.
