Education Standards in Britain

My own opinion (again!)

Having read from "knowledgeable" and "expert" sources that the reason people are unemployed is because "they lack basic skills such as numeracy or literacy", I would like to know what those people who say that think about some of the standards in people who are employed?

For example, last week I saw a sign in a Scarborough travel agency advertising "holidays for family's". Now, as we know, it's the unemployed who are illiterate, and obviously those in work must be super-intelligent! Someone ought to explain to this highly-intelligent working individual that "family's" is the possessive form of the singular word "family". The plural of "family" is "families" which, in the possessive would be "families'".

How gross it must be for these super-intelligent people to have an unemployed person (who, don't forget, should really be illiterate and innumerate!) correcting their appalling grammar.

This unemployed person is a science graduate who reads The Times and can certainly teach these super-intelligent employees a thing or two.
