´óÏó´«Ã½

Our Education Minister is set to unveil her proposals for replacing academic selection to the Executive next Thursday. This blog had already noted the apparent significance of the Sinn Fein back bench reshuffle Shoring Up Caitriona?

The DUP's Mervyn Storey claims the reshuffle is "a vote of no confidence" both in Paul Butler and Caitriona Ruane. But he doesn't think it will save the minister from "the crisis she has landed herself".

For John O'Dowd's take on both the back bench reshuffle and the chances of a front bench reshuffle, it's worth listening to Inside Politics at a quarter to one on Saturday on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Ulster. He appears together with the Ulster Unionist Basil McCrea who is proposing the formation of an executive sub committee on post primary transfers during a debate to be held in the Assembly on Tuesday.
