It's a bit rich listening to Ed Balls waxing moral about parents who flip their homes to pretend to be in a better catchment area. Weren't Ed & Yvette Cooper the first parliamentary couple to get a bit confused as to whether their main residence was in Westminster or Yorkshire? Just like Jacquie Smith's allowance for kipping at her sister's place - but at least she resigned and made a pretend apology. 'Do as we say - don't dare lying as we do.'
