This distancing from reality is much to their disadvantage. I direct the same remarks to the members of IBEC and other bodies. These are the people who undermined so much of our public administration, banking and so on. It is somewhat rich of them to blame people who are 14 and 15 years of age at this stage.

There is a problem with mathematics and it is not being addressed by the same university heads who offer bonus points to those who can afford grinds. No attempt is being made to reform the teaching of mathematics to people in schools.
