Clegg due at school
Thursday 12th June 2008, 11:50AM BST.
Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg was today due to visit a Shropshire village school at the centre of a fierce campaign to prevent its closure and merger.
Mr Clegg is on fact-finding trip to the county and Herefordshire to find out more about the problems facing rural schools and businesses.
After visiting Lydbury North Primary School near Bishop’s Castle, which Shropshire County Council is proposing should be amalgamated with Clunbury school, Mr Clegg was due to meet with farmers at Much Wenlock.
