Look, Nulab have been in power for ten-and-a-half years, one of their original slogans was "Education, education, education", they have doubled annual spending on education*, yet the bulk of this extra has been wasted. Results are getting worse each year and standards are falling.
Is there any reason to believe this latest 'pledge'? Has the electorate's patience not run out yet?
Or are Nulab still blaming this on "Eighteen years of Tory underinvestment"? How much longer? When did Thatcher stop blaming stuff on Callaghan, and start taking responsibility and credit for herself? Must have been before 1989, surely?
* OK, doubled in nominal terms, increased by 48% after adjusting for inflation, and by maybe only 25% after adjusting for rises in salary levels - the bulk of education spending is salaries, after all.
Elevate their cause?

You'd have thought somebody would have started to ask when the "going to" would change to "has become" wouldn't you.
