{#7 Issue: Someone tory should put the 1922 on a leash} A group of 60 Conservative MPs are attempting to persuade the Prime Minster to clear the way for the creation of new grammar schools. The 1922 committee, a grassroots Tory group whose members include influential backbenchers Liam Fox and David Davis, are calling for the ban on new selective state schools to be scrapped.
