The conclusion was not justified from the information given, was it?
Hence it was illogical.

Earth to CretinGuru - New Labor was voted to Power in 1997. It is a common knowledge

Anyway judging from that exchange, there's at least one country whose educational level isn't better than the UK's: Poland.
Maybe they made it better after mos left.

But yes, UK is behind most in not all other EU countries in PISA ranking, which is a shame.

That is surprising given that the germans have those awful dr oekter things. Waitrose ones are much better.

The educational stats. I'm sure you can read it for yourself. Or maybe you can't.
Of course it's a generalisation since not everyone with a poor education is stupid, but in general those with a poor education are on the left of the bell-curve.
Particularly as for the older, post-war demographic, high quality education would have been free and based on merit, unlike the young of today who have really got a raw deal.

you mean having a degree?

now if you read the summary they pointed out degrees were only obtained by a small percentage of the population in earlier years. Few aspired to degrees and few would have been accepted by universities. More modern degrees handed out like cornflakes in the B'liar years tend to compare unfavourably as do GCSEs versus 'O' Levels.

This might help you understand it has pictures:

so assuming twice as many people in UKIP are over 40 then they are half as likely to have a degree as someone who could graduate in 2011 because the number of degrees gained doubled between 1992 & 2011.
