#HannahSpencer, the new #Green MP for #Gorton has been a plumber for 16 yrs - since she was 18

UK politics is very much in need of folks like her - schooled in LIFE rather than #PPE at #Oxbridge

Once-Upon-A-Time the LP was full of ex-miners, ex-posties, ex-dockers. Ppl with experience of real life

This is Balthasar, the cat that seems to have claimed New College, Oxford as his second home.

r/analytics • IOh We just found out our AI has been making up analytics data for 3 months and I'm gonna throw up. Support So we've been using an Al agent since November to answer leadership questions about metrics. It seemed amazing at first fast answers, detailed explanations, everyone loved it. I just found out it's been hallucinating numbers this entire time. Our VP of sales made territory decisions based on data that didn't exist. Our CFO showed the board a deck with fake insights. The Al was just inventing plausible sounding percentages. I only caught it by accident when someone asked me to double check something. I started digging, and holy shit, it's bad.

It turns out that #AI is mimicking the output of #Oxbridge / £PublicSchool alumni: plausible bullshit, assserted with eloquent confidence

"leading selective universities should have to limit their intake of privately educated UK undergraduates to a more representative 10% each year, compared with the c. 30% that universities such as Oxford, Durham and Cambridge currently admit." #highered #academicsky #edchat #inequality #Oxbridge

Leading universities urged to take no more than 10% of students from private schools Expanding access to Oxbridge and other leading institutions would boost social mobility, say authors of new book

"pupils from prestigious private schools who went to leading universities were 52 times more likely to reach elite positions in society than those who attended any other schools."

Cambridge college to target elite private schools for student recruitment Exclusive: Trinity Hall’s new policy described as a ‘slap in the face’ for state-educated students

Someone with A* A A at a state school may well be as bright as a student with A* A* A* at an elite private school.

If I want to recruit the best I don’t focus only on the most privileged.

It’s obvious. 🙄

Except to the fuckwits running #TrinityHall

Equality in education system a priority to break the cycle. Bring #oxbridge into UCAS and end practice of applicants using two years in state sixth form to fake state school student status. Often securing bursaries by bluffing disadvantage. #fot

Did she leave that in her Piss Poor Economics course at #Oxbridge?

At a rough guess, they’ll all turn up in other National Institution directorships after the ski season because, well, they’re the “right” sort of people, aren’t they? #oxbridge

Uh-oh it's an #Oxbridge Derby on #UniversityChallenge tonight
That always brings out the haters
