Scots 'drink 46 bottles of vodka'

Well done BBC, outstanding journalism.


The BBC is known for its slipping standards.
 
Another example of fallacious use of 'statistics'. I think this may even have been an 11-plus question:

"The average Englishman's life expectancy is 71½ years, therefore John, who is an Average Englishman, has little chance of living to see his 72nd birthday".

The pupil was required to explain the flaw in this statement.

Do you have rhyming slang equivalents for all of your national or racial nicknames? Or is it a special privilege allotted only to Scottish People?

If it's used in good nature and works both ways, I don't have a problem with that. Some workplaces just aren't politically correct, and never will be, thank god. I'm guessing Piemaster doesn't work in a bank :biggrin:
