Nick Clegg, the former deputy prime minister and leader of the Liberal Democrats, has been speaking on the Today programme about education and inequality.
He said inequality was "incredibly complex" and related to many factors such as gender, race and background. He said there were various reasons that aren't fully understood, but that new research by the Social Market Foundation is showing that the area a child grows up in is playing an "increasingly important role" in explaining disparities.
