I thought this was a joke headline till I actually read the piece .
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-42570861 I would expect an average 6 year old to know what continent the larger countries are proper to , but it seems that our education system is quite happy to churn out would be media studies entrants who are clueless of the world they inhabit .  -------------------- Si non prius succederent.......... relinquere

The Cobden and Bright liberalisim of Mr Gladstone was actually the foundation of the 'right's' way - Thatcherisim etc. The mamby pamby all in it together stuff was one nation Conservatisim propounded by Disrali. Always struck me as odd that the Tories wanted to return to Victorian values. I suppose that's the trouble, when you don't do thinking, you have to make it up as you go along! -------------------- Know your place!
