so have you managed to quantify "slightly lower" yet?
Just so I can get an idea regarding how much better I have to be, so that I don't lose out to the nigerian "jobs for the boys" theory of employment.
But i thought you said that people look after their own in these sort of situations, even if they were not of the same standard? (I quoted it..... did you not see?)
Let's be honest. You don't like the fact that your opinion of what happens in the world has been contradicted. Hence your...
Ah so it's quantifiable.... the less suited for the job the others were......

That's cool, I'd rather be a fool than a dickhead.

Do you really think that most CEOs are worth the vast salaries compared to what an average worker is paid?
As for an "Englishman" over the others...
64%? Is that published somewhere?
I saw these figures http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ukip/11546405/Ukip-says-BBC-exposed-over-left-wing-debate-audience.html
102 were intending to vote for a left(ish) wing party. That was out of an audience of 200.
Thing is, the majority of people are liberal/centre left/left leaning. But traditionally (and as can be seen now), those votes are split across more than one party.
