THE PERVERSION OF THE EGALITARIANS.



I note that "AT LEAST three of Britain’s leading universities have introduced schemes that favour state school students at the expense of applicants with better grades from the independent sector. The universities — Exeter, Warwick and Edinburgh — have responded to pressure from the government to hit targets aimed at increasing the proportion of state school entrants. "



This blatant social engineering goes by unremarked when it should be a source of outrage. Universities, dependent on Government for their incomes, have prostituted the noble concept of a meritocratic based education in favour of the radical egalitarianism pursued by Blair and the left. This will ensure that they become increasingly worthless academic dressed factories producing an endless stream of well qualified ignoramuses.
