"In the 21st century we should be ashamed of the number of children leaving school unable to read and write properly. Instead of reducing lessons to 10 mins, the current education system should be simplified. Our childrens education is the foundation of the future of this country and from the extremely low standards being achieved and offered by the current system Britain's future looks extremely bleak and all we are raising is a generation of unenthusiastic, uncompetative under achievers. The system should be simplified and concentrate on the basic skills such as reading, writing and mathematics. From such little acorns oak trees grow."
Talk about someone personifying their petition ... such marvellous spelling and grammar!
Is anyone suggesting reducing lessons to ten minutes? This particular part of the petition has me particularly perplexed - what on earth does it mean?

I've now wasted an hour reading numerous blogs you have written in the last two months. You undoubtedly were raised here in England, and are undoubtedly young, based on the factors that you believe that just because you are "entitled to an opinion" that your opinion is valuable. It is most often, in most cases I read, not. Just asking questions, or expressing skepticism, is a curious exercise in self-psychotherapy but it is not by itself of value to others. Please spend more time evaluating each issue on the basis of what it may mean to society, not you. That you put words behind your opinions does not garner respect for you... nor does it enhance anything except your own listings. Please think twice. In Frank Herbert's Dune an important principle was to "speak only the deepest truth you can sense". Please. Thanks. Anonymous only because I like most others have litle time and now I won't waste further time reading your rantings. But good luck anyway. Cheers, a real person
