Greens complaining about Abbott point. Then again, the greens complain about everything energy related. I went to a gas well in central QLD a couple of days ago and the water wouldn't catch fire. So disappointed.

http://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2015/mar/12/fiona-patten-why-she-wants-to-find-a-new-name-for-the-australian-sex-partyQuote:Fiona Patten: why she wants to find a new name for the Australian Sex party
The party’s leader and first MP talks about widening its base, her push for voluntary euthanasia, drug law reform and online freedom, and the schism within feminism over porn, prostitution and Fifty Shades of Grey Fiona Patten is awesome. Love this in particular: Fiona Patten wrote:“I’m definitely a feminist. I don’t have a problem if [academic] Sheila Jeffreys or [commentator] Melinda Tankard Reist don’t want to watch porn and think that any image of sex or sexuality of a female is objectification. I don’t agree with them but if they don’t want to look at it, fine. I do think that they’re taking a very nanny state approach to this. My personal and professional position is that censorship is never the answer to sexism.”

Quote:Let's have a debate... Seems to be code for "we probably have a shitty idea but we're clueless if it really is so we aren't officially making it a policy unless by some miracle it actually isn't shitty so don't get mad". Sad that we're still not half way through this terrible government's one and only term :cry:

I worked in a video production company there for the better part of a year, and as you might guess 90% of the clientele were University related. Sometimes I met some very interesting and intelligent people, sometimes it felt like adult daycare for priveleged Tories. Got out when the GFC hit.

So basically just wanted to confirm you are in no position to judge the intelligence levels of Oxford graduates.

And look, the person in question aside, a scholarship to a prestigious university is not a measure of intelligence. It's all about who you know, not what you know. A sign of privilege, not profound intellect. On top of that, a 2:2 is considered very mediocre by Oxford standards.

I'm pretty certain it's completely appropriate to use 'inferred' in this context, but I see you couldn't resist opportunity to be a grammar nazi. And your musings about prestigious universities sounds rather envious and paranoid, typical of someone who perhaps didn't go to a prestigious university. Finally TA achieved a respectable second class degree, not a 2:2. He's clearly no genius, but he is far from the idiot many like to portray him as.
