On Wednesday 15 March, 77 Labour MPs rebelled in Parliament against Tony Blair's and Gordon Brown's plans to convert all state schools into "trust" schools run by private sponsors..
The Bill passed its "second reading" with Tory support, but still has several Parliamentary hurdles to jump.
Trade unionists: look at the list of Labour rebels, and see whether your union's sponsored MPs are there! If not, ask them why not! Ask whether the union should continue sponsoring them.
