well yes macgrath, its true we have a fair amount of crap going down in schools and society generally.

my point was and remains that there is no point in having children who can't read and write English in lessons doing two foreign languages, and that is what old smart arse Thatch and keith Joseph legislated, and which remains the bloody lunatic situation which nobody has the sense, or cares enough about to reverse.

mainly because there are people like you going round singing the praises of that golden age with its wise and wonderful leader

as for unions holding the country to ransom - when did our leaders ever listen to anything else except naked power
