Posh and Posher, Journalists Documentary About Why Britain Is Run By Public School Boys
Journalist Andrew Neil talks about his documentary here…
Hmm, somebody’s bored to be taking their hands off the wheel like this. This has arisen just in time as top-grade university’s are forced to consider students from poorer backgrounds with lower grades.
Andrew Neil, recently, has also been touted as a bit of a radical, what with his rants against poor Climate Change science, health and safety procedures, and political correctness. This makes me all the more suspicious.. What are the BBC grooming him (in the public eye) for?
I’m not saying social equality isn’t good, I’m just suspicious of any governmental philanthropy that claims to be aside from ideology. You just have to look at the last Labour government, the crime statistics during it’s regime, and what it did to combat it. Was it really an anti-crime mandate or something else?
Governments are puppets to corporations, those that fund them and give them lucrative careers after office. Politics, in itself, can do nothing to alleviate humakind’s strife and suffering: only technology can do this. Technological innovation, strangled in the grip of a monopolistic market place, can do little where it really matters. And so the snake eats it’s own tail…
And, perhaps one could argue (perhaps a little pedantically), while one can claim to be proponents of social equality by allowing people less-privileged equal-standing among their richer peers, as long as those less-privileged in society still exist at all, it’s not really social equality is it? It’s about maintaining the status-quo by throwing some bread from the table, a caelo usque ad centrum (“for whoever owns the soil, it is theirs up to the sky and down to the depths” – Wikipedia).
