Two bob degrees don't signify intelligence . Ive always said that Blair changed the school leaving age to 18 so his army of lefty teachers had more time to influence the way students think politically . Universities then finish them off ,attending one even for the most useless of degrees keeps them in the loop Its telling that those that break away from the indoctrination and enter the workforce earlier have a different view . , and to charge tuition fees to brits, The facts about the history of tuition fees in Scotland are stark and unarguable:
– in 1997 when Labour came to power, higher education was free.
– the Labour government then introduced fees of £1000 a year across the UK, which meant a four-year degree in Scotland suddenly cost £4000.
– in 2000, the Labour-led Scottish Executive replaced said fees with a “graduate endowment”, meaning that Scottish students paid £2000 retrospectively towards the cost of their education – half of what it had cost them under Labour’s fees system in 1999, but still £2000 more than the £0 they’d been paying in 1997.
In the space of three years, then, while claiming to have “abolished” tuition fees, Labour had in fact increased the cost of a degree in Scotland from zero to £2000. Those are the cold, hard, unyielding truths.
Labour in Scotland for years tried to spin their way out of introducing tuition fees by telling Scots they abolished tuition fees in 2000 ....................

Universities then finish them off ,attending one even for the most useless of degrees keeps them in the loop Its telling that those that break away from the indoctrination and enter the workforce earlier have a different view . ok that’s one way of looking at it As a victim of ROSLA i have another At the age of 14 in my third year in secondary school i witnessed the huge exodus at easter of the academically hopeless to jobs mainly trades and apprenticeships. By my 21st birthday the vast majority of those 22 year olds were in good jobs bringing good money. All drove cars apart from those who drove vans for their trade, apart from one. At a school reunion Jimmy Davies who left with a report saying he had achieved nothing of worth and would amount to nothing parked his five series BMW 525 Alpina in the headmaster's parking space. Jimmy’s dad ran a butcher’s stall in the local market. In the seven years since i last saw him, he had helped his father expand to a chain of i think it was seven ir eight such establishments across south wales…. But back to my year. In my fourth year ROSLA condemned our year to suffer the disruption of over a hundred kids who were now denied the right to go and earn money, being forced instead to stay in school firca further year for no good purpose whatsoever. All it achieved was a reduction in the unemployment statistics. Blair’s ‘edukashun edukashun edukashun’ mantra, combined with gordon brown’s deliberate destruction of funding forcing universities to deny places to british students because foreigners paid more and brought overseas government funds to pay it, and to charge tuition fees to brits, was again nothing more than a sham designed to remove 18 year olds from dole queues for no good reason. Even the open University have fallen under the lefties spell John.

Well now, lefty... If we assume that your article (which you've not linked) is correct and that Labour are in fact supported by a middle class intelligentsia, then it contradicts your previous assertion that Labour were swept into power on a wave of working class support. But, be that as it may, even if it is correct what does it prove? That Labour voters are more intelligent or simply that they are champagne socialists better able to afford Labours excesses than the working class? (In the same way that Remain voters were less likely to find themselves in competition with cheap foreign labour). None of which explains however, why Labours most ardent supporters on here, far from being intellectual giants, seem to be abject dullards unable to string a coherent sentence together. Go figure. Don't know about other labour supports on here But in my case I admit I lack education and at 60 I fall into the average age of the Tory voters. What think proven my point. Where does in say labour were in fact supported by middle class intelligents. And to turn that around saying the working class lack intelligence does that mean that the working class now vote Conservative party lol Your spelling has miraculously improved

You can’t even string a sentence together . lol. Which part of dyslexia don't you understand Bentley? You've been making snide comments for days now. It's not cool. Would you mock someone for being disabled physically? How about blind? Is that fair game for your scorn? If you can't understand what ttl has written ask for clarity. There's no need to be a dick. Have you any idea what it takes for someone with severe dyslexia to post on a site that is for the written word? If you want to mock ttl's arguments that's fine, it's what we are here for, but attacking his difficulty with writing is below you. Be better. Get off your high horse . The cut and paste monkey has been telling everyone how Tories are less intelligent than Labour when he can’t read his own posts and can’t string a sentence together. Lets all type with our elbows , post shit and cry when others point it out.

The site has a built in spellchecker, Monte. Hence one would have to be almost wilfully stupid to continually spew out that much illegible drivel, especially while having the timerity to impugn the intelligence of others. Which, while we're on the subject, is exactly what this entire troll thread is actually about. Inspite of any built in spellchecker my spelling is atrocious and I'm too old to give a flying fuck what anyone thinks. There are reasons TTL cant spell, now get off his back. He’s an idiot. His inability to string a sentence together just makes his waffle harder to read .

Has for telling monty to get off his high horse. He's being polite to you he could of warned you that if you persist you could face a Suspension on the Forum. Last year there was another person who get suspension for a few days After persistent calling my writing after he been warned.

Maybe you can make the same effort every time to post. As for your ability to read your inability to read your own posts , I accept that is not due to dyslexia. It must be another affliction. While we are at it, maybe when you cut and paste selected snippets of other peoples work, you might add a link so that others can see the whole article .

You and the team are the ridiculous ones, the day when all education is about 'academic excellence' is the day we will achieve the 'Ticky Tacky' society.
