I agree. Increasing class sizes by 7% would dramatically improve standards at state schools.

Dion was on BBC Breakfast this morning around 8:30 (you can probably find it on iPlayer if you want to see). He was discussing this issue. He said that of some 500 professional coaches (he included deputies and youth managers) only 40 are not white. He thinks the reason is outright racism...

I hate Robinson's politics equally to Corbyn's. For me they are two sides of the same coin.

There's loads of people there. Don't call me number 9; I am not a number, I am a free man.

The Portsmouth team are big fans of the Winnall Sorting Office, I expect they were going there. Chaplin prefers the Post Office in town (WH Smith); I doubt he was there.

Here for the festival. Laphroigh tomorrow. :)

You must have a greater resistance to alcohol than I

Sat in a pub in bowmore, islay. Shout out to the others from the sba watching with me and George and Willie from falkirk who supported the sky blues during the game. Bloody brilliant.

Or at an even more basic level. A implies B. I agree with A. Therefore I agree with B.

For Science grad you're surprising poor at verbal reasoning. Let me help: Decomposed as: Statement A. Statement B is different to Statement A and Statement B implies a move towards Statement C. Where Statement A = Sickle cell anaemia serves an odd advantage in some countries since it...

OK, I'm being disingenuous - but to make a point. I invite you to read the two sentences and present an alternative logical conclusion. Ignore your preconceived assumptions about what he believes and read them as a logic exercise. Had he written that he had miscommunicated his opinion and...

Liking Clint's post for the comments about judging people as individuals rather than being a member of a group. Not endorsing any accusation of others showing faux outrage, as I don't know if that is true or not.

It seems to be impossible to underestimate the intelligence and temperament of some people on the internet. Let's ignore them as there is nothing to be gained from acknowledging them. I also take little from this interview about the gender pay gap, as Cathy's interviewing style is so inept...

This interview is very much worth watching. I'll explain why I think so. I feel it's important to be an independent thinker, i.e. not to follow themes from one side or another, accepting them without thought. I am also passionate about identifying the underlying cause of issues rather than...

I'll admit, I struggled to reconcile these two statement for many long hours into the night. The meaning of the first sentence seemed clear to me and yet the second appeared to be contradictory. However your assertion that it was my mistake rather than a miscommunication from you drove me on...

How about Steven Benson?

Why do you think that? Don't you think that people with cystic fibrosis would prefer to have been born without it? We have to separate the benefits of technology used responsibility from an emotional response to history. Hitler was a vegetarian; should we therefore all eat meat? I guess you...

I did it about 10 years ago - a long case (lasted about 6 weeks). I really enjoyed the experience; the case was really interesting. It related to drugs trafficking and the gang leaders had already been convicted. Our case was three men lower down in the gang hierarchy. We got to listen to...

Well no, I wouldn't want to associate myself with a person like that either.

I agree - wasn't going to engage in that - none of them are perfect and moreover as they are all politicians they are probably all less perfect than normal people. I know next to nothing about Eugenics though so I picked up on that. :)
