    Have you ever thought of moving into politics?

    I'll ask you again. Do you have a degree?

    In your defence only one in twenty in your age group went.

        Good lad. Wasn't so hard in the end. Just need you to fess up where from and what grade then it's all in the open.

          Oh and I got a first.

                So we are broadly in agreement.

                If both sides were to take this approach I'm sure we could get a win win.
