The reason for this reshuffle is because Boris want's the government (as he said today) to focus on delivering their promises. The saying goes the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton. In my view the battles of science and technology will be won at Oxbridge.
Hi
Not a very nice post, quite aggressive in fact.
Firstly, personal envy.
My brother and I have 4 kids, non went to Private School and 3 out of the 4 went to Oxbridge.
So you got that wrong.
There is a world of difference between the privately educated who have rich parents, then go to OXbridge with huge allowances and become members of invitation only clubs and those who get there from local schools on merit and who have to get part time jobs to fund their way
They have never not have private medical insurance, never had to wait for an NHS appointment.
Never had to watch the money.
They simply have no idea.through,
