    Why bother getting a degree in Engineering, the title is not protected in the UK unlike other countries, just call yourself an Engineer and you are an engineer.

    Mind you Architect is protected by law here and everyone and their dog in clientCO pretends they are architects.

    Easy money!

    British Education is the best in the world,
    I don't believe one of these stories I've heard
    'Bout them raising our grades for no reason at all
    Lying to the universities and all
    Picking out subjects an gradin em down
    Resisting assessments as they lie to the crown
    Shorting their marks and calling them clever
    I don't believe that sort of thing happens here

    Sing if you're glad to degree
    Sing if you're happy that way

    Unfortunately some poor kids only aspirations are X-Factor and if they are really ambitious it's the armed forces.

    Though those type can't afford the course.
    We have one of the highest spends per school pupil in the world and are told that our education sector is the best in the world and yet our education system is poor at best.

    Sadly we have a bunch of pinko liberals running our schools.
