Has anybody seen this very odd article by Liddle, where he essentially dismisses all the above as "character flaw[s], and one which could be stamped out given the necessary willpower from the parents" and "crutch upon which middle-class parents support themselves" rather than accept their kids are thick or just generally crap.
Very, very odd. I read through the whole thing believing it was a piss-take, but no, he seems to really believe it.
How was this bloke ever an editor of Today.....and how can he be seen as a serious journalist?
