    Best UK Prime Minister ?

    Actually, for most middle income families tax is more like 60%. I was really wondering why you thought that politicians are so much better at spending our money than we are? There is no evidence to suggest that is true.

    Best UK Prime Minister ?

    Tax could be much lower than 30% and it should be. Are you really so bad with spending your money that you can't trust yourself to do it wisely?

    most of you will have heard of this today [School choices]

    I think all schools should be private and that there should be a voucher scheme to cover (some of) the cost. I would not send my children to a state school as they no longer have control over the children who are admitted to them or how and what they teach. However, school is only a small part...

    Me to, I still have the ticket somewhere. I have many happy memories of walking home over that footbridge and sailing/canoeing under it. My uncle Bill used to live in the bungalow on the other side.

    Manchester gets Super Casino

    Lucky escape for Blackpool. There is far too much gambling and it is as destructive as alchol or drug abuse. I wouldn't call this regeneration rather degradation. I hope it all goes horribly wrong.

    0.9999999...... = 1

    Ah, but be careful here. Series expansions such as these, or Taylor expansions, Hilbert spaces, Li algebra etc. are only approxinmations of the original (nonlinear/unknown) function. In a pre-principia mathematica age you might be correct, now you would surely have to bound the universe of...

    Are You Racist?

    :clap: :clap: :clap: Agreed. Racism seems to cover everything from name calling to ethnic cleansing. At many levels, what some call racisim seems to me to be perfectly natural behaviour observable in many species and organisms. Still, it is much easier to pick on other peoples supposed...

    How to get 82% WRONG and still pass...

    The point is not that average intelligence has changed, rather that the measures of achievement are awarded more generously nowadays. That is not a slight on younger people more a reflection on the generally poor state of the education system and the values of those who administer it. What is...

    Man in veil,walks free.

    Re: Re: Man in veil,walks free. No, it is on the front page of the Daily Telegraph so it must be true. It turns out that his father was the cousin of a former dictator, Barre, and he stole his sister's passport. As we know, they don't check passports on exit so it seems entirely possible. He...
