Описание: Keir Starmer’s new cabinet is the most representative – in terms of education backgrounds – ever recorded. This new cabinet marks a historic moment in British politics, with a record number of state-educated ministers and the lowest proportion of privately educated ministers since 1945. The majority of the new cabinet attended comprehensive schools, at 92%, with 4% attending grammar schools and 4% attending private schools. In terms of university attendance, the cabinet are more likely to have attended a narrow range of elite universities than MPs as a whole, as well as the UK population. Of the Ministers in Keir Starmer’s cabinet, 40% went to Oxbridge, compared to 19% of Labour MPs, 29% of Conservative MPs, and 21% of Liberal Democrat MPs. As an undergraduate, Keir Starmer went to the University of Leeds, a Russell Group institution. He continues the trend of every Prime Minister who has attended an English university since 1937 attending Oxford - where he got his postgraduate degree.
