The Tories also mention a Sport England scheme which advocated replacing the traditional primary school sports day with a more inclusive event centred around “problem solving exercises”. A government spokesman said: “As Tessa Jowell said yesterday (Wednesday), the government is firmly in favour of competitive sport. “It teaches teamwork, discipline, self-respect and how to cope with winning and losing. It’s also great fun.” As part of his policy solutions, Mr Howard highlighted shadow home secretary David Davis’ announcement of a review of the Human Rights Act on Monday. Mr Davis argued a rights culture was leading to “spurious” legal claims.
