[-Talbot-]

Yes, caught the last 1/2 hour of it.

I didn't there would be a thread on it to be honest.

[anneasquith]

Talbot, why not ?

[-Talbot-]

Because the usual suspects would find it hard to dish out the usual vitriol.

[Bathsheba]

Yeah Talbot,.....why not?

Makes you wonder what those people could achieve given half a chance.....puts some of us to shame.....x

[sherrardk]

I was in tears too, the way everyone treated that poorly boys - the kids were amazing with him.

[gness]

Reagan had half a chance, DB....really?

[sherrardk]

You've only got to google 'achievement of students from low income families' to see that they don't stand a chance, throw in sink estates and drug dealers and their kids are stuffed too. I'm always amazed that people can't see how much some others struggle and how crap their lives are.

I think there is hope for Cameron. He's had a lot to deal with in his short life but still has a spark about him.

[gness]

Sherr...they don't want to see....to comfy in their own lives maybe.
