One for Jeremy to consider



N. Korean leaders order North Hamgyong Province to produce “model units of science education”

North Korea’s Ministry of Higher Education has ordered education officials in North Hamgyong Province to produce “model units of science education.”

This comes after the ministry conducted inspections of three universities in the province late last year.

A source in North Hamgyong Province told Daily NK on Tuesday that after inspection visits to several local universities last month, the ministry sat down with education officials from the province on Dec. 23 to analyze their successes and failures, as well as to discuss the creation of “model units” at the province’s universities.

Jeremy Corbyn could consider this approach. The creation of centrally directed "model units" in universities sounds like an excellent idea on which to launch his new political party. Maybe a national app could be developed to monitor compliance with the model.   

Education should be fertile ground for his political imagination. Another possibility would be a National Pencils Authority to tackle pencil inequality in primary schools.

What concerns me, is that Corbyn will have a huge pension when he is eventually chucked out, and we'll have to pay for the old fool's ramblings forever.

He was a twonk from the day he was elected, but is now just a rich twonk, like most of the lefties on the opposite benches!

Pencil Equality? Wait for it . . . ."You only broke me 'cos I's a black pencil"

North Korean science seems like a mixed bag. They are doing very well at Physics and rocketry, as any Japanese cowering in his basement will testify.

Food production seems to lag behind a bit, though.

Corbyn could get Angela Raynor - nicknamed 'Crayons' by those aware of her intellect - to run the pencil department.

Scrobs - annoying isn't it? Money for being useless.

Jannie - and pencils make black marks.

Sam - although none of their science seems to be original. Classified assessments of their capabilities would be interesting.

Ed - is she allowed to graduate from crayons to pencils? It's a big step.
