In the postmodern world, of course, this can be explained away by the comforting thought that children are learning "soft skills" and developing "emotional intelligence". In truth, there is a reality gap between Tony Blair's vision of Britain as the hub of the knowledge economy and events on the ground - the dumbing down of the science curriculum and the plunging numbers of children taking modern languages. These trends suggest that we will soon be the hub of a lack of knowledge economy."<br /><br />http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2006/oct/23/columnists.guardiancolumnists<br /><br />Incidentally there has been great fun on CIF over New Statesman Islamist Mehdi Hasan<br /><br />Posting this youtube is verboten<br /><br />It's a speech by Allah's ranting little imperialist with no other input, and comments have been disabled<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4hpfqFt-0Q<br /><br />However cif censors delete immediately, sometimes whole posts are removed entirely.
