400,000 people who currently work in the NHS cannot read or write properly.

Is this a worry?

You bet it is.

They might be working. But they are not educating. In fairness English education has been in freefall since the 1960's. Its probably irreversible now.

I think they need to start to get to grips stop fighting with each other. Cameron needs to get to grips with his party and stop slagging down the Labour party. I think this smooth tranistion is like a talent show, and it will end up the blind leading the blind and no one will be able to run this P&&& up in the brewery.

Mark,
How many metaphors can you mix in one sentence?

How can he slag them off? Nubey Labour has nicked their ground and their policies! Maybe the tories should come up with some of their own...

Of course, the blind-leading-the-blind would really only need their sense of smell and taste to appreciate the beer.

They might just be cleaners and I've yet to decipher a doctors handwriting. Laughing
