    Standards must have been low in Russia since you hardly display any logical or analytical capability.
    Hard Brexit now!

        Red Diploma is very hard to get, you need 5's in every subject, five 'excellents' - otlichno in Russian - think the phrase is 's otlichiem'.

        Russian grading is simple, 1 to 5 basically - 5 the highest. When I go to parents evening now they go on about 'on a 5A+ working towards a 6B but the target is only a 6C- so we're well on track.' What?

        Of course, the trouble with Russian Uni is it's crap, you can get prepped by the person who wrote the exam questions......

          Errr, wasn't he on the losing side? In fact wasn't he on the faction destroyed by the other lefties, so an even bigger loser? A bit like reading Gordon Brown's account of electioneering in 2010...

          We need a book by the winner. "Homage to Spain's fascists, and how I helped them to win the war" by F.Franco
          Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on Twitter

              Well done. And have you coloured in all the pictures this time too?
