British Prime Minister David Cameron says he will make universities disclose what proportion of poor and ethnic minority applicants they admit, in an attempt to end racial and class discrimination that "should shame our country and jolt us to action."

Writing in the Sunday Times newspaper, Cameron said that "if you're a young black man, you are more likely to be in a prison cell than studying at a top university." ...

Only the best and brightest should be at the top. Or at least it is supposed to work that way.

“Cameron said that “if you’re a young black man, you are more likely to be in a prison cell than studying at a top university.” ...”

Well, that’s just like it is here, now isn’t it! And probably for exactly the same reasons.

IDIOT.

Just commit suicide and be done with it.

In The Godfather (the book, not the movie), there's an interesting paragraph. The words are spoken by Vito Corleone himself to Michael, and - I've always thought - relate in some way to the "Liberals" of our time:

The Don had proceeded to instruct him. "There are men in this world," he said, "who go about demanding to be killed. You must have noticed them. The quarrel in gambling games, they jump out of their automobiles in a rage if someone so much as scratches their fender, they humiliate and bully people whose capabilities they do not know. I have seen a man, a fool, deliberately infuriate a group of dangerous men, and he himself without any resources. These are people who wander through the world shouting, 'Kill me. Kill me.' And there is always somebody ready to oblige them. We read about it in the newspapers every day. Such people of course do a great deal of harm to others also."

Yep, that's about right.

They have access to the same level of education as everyone else
It you can't afford, or your grades aren't good enough for the mainstream Universities, use the OpenUniversity like the rest of the population.
The opportunities are there for all.
Kamerov is a bigger fool than I thought.

This is a big part of the reason many ex-Tories rally around the common sense of Nigel Farage and UKIP.

If I visited England I'd be very disappointed to find no English people.

I hate to break it to that pantywaist Cameron but if you are a white man or any other kind of man or any kind of woman, you are more likely to be in a prison cell than studying at a top university. If Britain is destroyed by an earthquake, it will be the result of Cameron’s existence as PM causing Maggie Thatcher and Winston Churchill to roll over in their graves at warp speed.
