Ian still gets angry about Vennels and her cronies. He is a national treasure for revealing the scandal.

[@Padraigp]

I dunno I'm still mad at him for them even putting borris on thus show and laughing all etonian together as if borris wasn't a terrible person. I'd never heard of him till he was on thus show and it was a great show. If the election was for him to be on this show I'd have voted for him. But they had him on twice. I just don't think it's right to have somone on whos a politician . It gives them a boost and people like matt Hancock and anyone else ..it should not be that a celebrity who's got way more tv time goes against somone like corbyn at the. Time who was on a hilarious beloved TV show ...if he had been in peep show or something people would think that was cool. Or just recognise his face and thereby make him more commonly known. I just feel that's wrong somehow.

I really like the idea of national service. Doubt it would go down in the US, where I live, but it would be really good for us. We need wising up, exposure to other cultures, and some humility. In my mind, national service might serve a similar function to university. Teaches you that you don't know crap. I find that characteristic lacking in those who didn't get taught that in college. When you are "forced" to study subjects you have no interest or aptitude for, you learn a lot and develop a kind of grit that is very useful in life. It would also be a great introduction to the world for prospective uni students and help them possibly focus on what they would like to major in.
