A politician, particularly these days, has to be precise with their language so it was interesting to see on Newsnight that Michael Gove (Shadow Schools Secretary) has claimed that a direct quote from Andrew Lansley (Shadow Health Secretary) is "inaccurate".
The quote was:
"We are going to increase the resources for the NHS, we are going to increase resources for international development aid, we are going to increase resources for schools,"
Gove had already adamantly denied that spending on schools would increase so he had no choice but to disagree with the text above that Paxman read out.
Maybe it won't be a big deal but a Shadow Cabinet that can't get their approach aligned and their facts straight is a bit worrying is it not?
