Darth Vader Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Ah, if only. I can just imagine, black vans of snatch squads cruising the sink estates, looking for known lifelong scroungers, to be tapped on the noggin, chucked in the back of the van and never seen again, just like the street children in Buenos Aires. There are bigger scroungers than those out there on the 'sink estates', Conrod. Remember the Queen asking for a heating allowance, or the MPs expenses scandal?

Mecky Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I think this story is just the cover for a good day to bury bad news to be honest. The bigger story is that Gove wants to fail your children and throw them on the scrap heap by making exams harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took A level English online about 3 years ago and passed without doing any work in one year when the subject used to take 2 years when I was at school. Either I'm extremely intelligent or they are not worth the paper they are written on - let's all guess which. 3 years ago I was 57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole education system has been devalued because of grad inflation and easy exams under labour. It needs to be fixed, so that only exceptional students can get A grades, and dimwits can't pass at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janie48 Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Why not be proud of being wise with money instead then? What do you mean by that? I would betray the crown in a heartbeat, and be proud to do so.

Hereditary titles are shameful and despicable and have no place in the 21st century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
