    Intelligence: Something US politicians do not have.

    Education: Brainwashed Yanks by the US media in there own little world.

    Truth: Weapons of Mass Destruction

    WW2: Yanks only came into it after the Battle of Britain and we'd secured the air to make it safer. The Germans cancelled the invasion after that. What the Yanks done was help kick Germans back to Germany within Europe. So get yer facts right. Plus US planes done 30,000ft night time bombings, while we (as we still do in Iraq & Afghanistan), do low level day time bombings.

    Anyway, you can't admit your a loser when the majority have tried to put you straight. Typical American, always right, the rest of the world are wrong!!

    don't take offense RHB but you seem so negative to me about some things in the philippines, that if you were in a dark room, you'd develop , sorry for that.

    while AL is always positive about everything , i know who i would rather be taught by...

    as for teaching in the philippines, my mother-in-law is pretty high up at Palawan state uni, i've sat in some of her classes and the students get on with their work and have nothing but respect for her, something thats lacking in many UK schools.

    and as for education in the Phils, my wife has a degree in biology and also one in medicine, and from what i've seen here in the uk, shes just as skilled and knowledgeable, if not more so than many british docotors, filipino nurses are regarded by most NHS trusts as being some of the best.
    so to all filipino nurses out there ..

    as for WW2, the Russians made a difference to, as my parents will take you, they were there, my dad joined the russian army to fight the nazis in the baltic states.

    I agree with you Joe!

    There's also plenty of Filipino highly Skilled like engineer, seaman, doctor, business man, etc lives in many other countries.

    RHB'S spelling was wrong .It is a TRACHEOTOMY derives from the word trachea or windpipe. It is a sort of operation in the neck to give the patient an airway, so the the person can breath. Its a medical term and even RHB has a masters degree in education mispelled it.
    Regards,

    Not really.

    A little bit of history too, diba...?

    Someone was under the impression that a particular country won a war singlehandedly.

    But I have to admit that as "friendly fire" goes, they are absolutely champions......

    Can't beat their scorelines in a month of Sundays.....

    Actually if I were PM I would make it compulsory for everyone to spend a day at their local secondary school. I think it would get rid of this bullshit about UK schools being crap. I have been to my son's school on numerous occasions with no notice (and my ex wife's daughter's school). both are local comprehensive schoolds. Both have very good teaching standards. While there are some problems with bullying, the behaviour of most of the pupils I have seen is exemplary - including holding open doors and asking if you want help.

    Plus, I would estimate that the education is about 1-2 years ahead of what I did in a grammar School in the 70s. Throw into this wall to wall computers, superb facilities for music (band practise rooms, drum kits, theatre), and as a parent I have nothing to complain about.

    Get your info from the real world - not the daily wail!

    I'd whip his ass, my mind works nearly as fast as Carol Vorderman's when it comes to maths, hence I'm so successful at running over 50 businesses at once

    I take it your kid didn't go to school in inner Manchester or Liverpool, and the Business institutions in this country must all have it wrong saying they can no longer get educated school leavers to the standard they used to in the past.
