    Jon Snow gave Nick Gibb a good going over on Channel 4 News on the effect on students of the fiasco.

    Gibb has been the Con MP for Bognor Regis and Littlehampton since 1997. He has been the minister for education since 2014.

    He is also a member of Conservative Friends of Israel. I check MPs' registers of interests for that. Bit obsessive I know! He visited Israel with them some time back. Why do MPs fall into line like that? Pressure applied?

    Personal life
    Nick Gibb is the brother of Robbie Gibb, a former PR consultant and ex-editor of the BBC's political programmes, The Daily Politics and (in an executive capacity) This Week, who was announced as Director of Communications for Prime Minister Theresa May in July 2017. Wiki.

    I can't see that he has any special quality to make him an education minister.
