Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

There is a difference between beliefs and understanding.
You seem to lack the ability to comprehend ot do the latter.
Mind you can always follow your past leaders.
I am surprised that Heath wasn't and old etonian!

talking of education, the prog last night was very interesting ......
5 chinese teachers were seconded for a month to a high-performing comprehensive
the year was then split in two, with one half staying with the current system and the other being taught "chinese method"
the chinese method was strong on discipline - good - but was incredibly old-fashioned in the teaching method - teacher at the front preaches at the children and tells them what to memorise; questioning more than discouraged
this chinese system (12 hours a day in china) clearly produces great exam results, but totally stifles encouragement or the ability to think
however, another good side of the chinese system was the emphasis on physical exercise and sporting as well as classroom competition

It is interests me is how Cameron and Cameron can dish out cash to old boys in the city by selling the tax- payers’ property at a knock down price and hand out tax benefits to his paymasters and cronies, but not find money to tide over Kids Company.
The one thing that Cameron and his sycophantic neo-conservative followers have, is an abundance of Moral turpitude

excuse me, but Kids Company looks very suspect on examination
i must confess, it would be wonderful if just once in while you could get off that soapbox of yours ..... you are just so incredibly predictable, repetitive and boring

Manuel,
That is part of your problems.
What you absorb or introject in childhood comes on to haunt you and others laterl in life!
That is why you are what you are and others shouldn't be too hard on you!

i think you mean that you find that you're out of touch with most of the rest of the world, and your ossified brain can no longer cope, so it just spews out the same long outdated dogma day after day after day

The government recently gave them a grant of £3m. It might have been better to replace the management.
