Can't say I know much about him except he's the genius responsible for all these school mergers in Glasgow.

"Modernisers" take control of Glasgow City Council

Can't say I know much about him except he's the genius responsible for all these school mergers in Glasgow.
And that's been a huge success, hasn't it?
