Academic humour is an acquired taste, nevertheless a concise and very well presented lecture. Please don't gainsay Gresham or Doctor Milne, the College has been providing Public lectures since the end of the 16th Century CE and are actually rather good at their role.

Those with more 'conservative' tastes have shouldered the upkeep of this Nations' educational establishments - even though we knew that the entire system was rotten to the core, so when some medical-idiot, wearing a cheap suit, buttoned to the top opens with a snide gag designed to virtue signal his 'rite-on' ideology, I for one simply walk.... Goodbye...!!

Hard to miss Dr Milnes politics with his snarky comment about President Trump election. He also got in a sly one on John Majors. And they wonder why academia is falling into reprute.
