Is there a bigger tool than Toby Young?

And just to add spice…

I’ve just read a bit about Toby. He not only failed his O levels, he failed at cse level as well, but he believes his failed results in cse exams are the equivalent of A* in today’s examinations. He does not believe that a two tier exam system will disadvantage anyone, as he’s proof that failing O levels(also cse Toby) is no impediment to a successful university application(daddy, daddy, i failed, get the cheque book out).

He’s also a life long zionist, after spending 3 months on a kibbutz(not to much effort needed to brainwash toby, he’s a bit thick).

Basically, he’s saying that he is qualified for the role because he is not qualified for the role (you need diverse people on the panel).

And for all the things he’s ever said or done in the past against women, those with low IQ, people with physical disabilities, those with learning or mental developmental issues or those that generally struggle to access mainstream education, he says that he would like to be judged on his actions and not his words; that these were just ‘sophomoric, politically incorrect remarks’.

Here’s another sophomoric and politically incorrect remark.

You are a complete cunt.

Imagine being a journalist that doesn’t want to be judged by your words.

See, I’ve never been a fan of political correctness in general, but how is being “inclusive” possibly a bad thing?

Even if you’re able-bodied, academically gifted and have everything going for you, why on Earth wouldn’t you want to see that schools and society at large wants to give the disabled and less-gifted every chance to achieve whatever their potential might be?

I mean even from a purely selfish point of view, making sure that disabled people are well-educated and employable means that they can be self-sufficient in the professional world and reduce the burden on the taxpayer.

Still, its the Spectator, so he knows his audience is basically the typical grumbling home-counties whinging prick I guess.

He has just received a ringing endorsement from Boris Johnson, who is claiming that Toby is “The ideal man for the job”, and any criticism of his appointment is “Ridiculous”. They really are taking the piss now, openly contemptuous of the electorate. Here, they have appointed to the board of higher education watchdog, a man who’s previously expressed views in the field include complaining about the “ghastly inclusivity” of wheelchair ramps in schools. He also described working-class grammar school boys who secured places at Oxford as “universally unattractive”, and “small, vaguely deformed undergraduates”. Writing about class in a book called The Oxford Myth, Young recounted how the arrival of “stains” - as working class students were known - had changed the university. Yet Toby Young, who failed his o levels so clearly thick as two deal boards, got a place at Oxbridge due to his father knowing the admissions person, and them running a special inclusion scheme for the first time. As i said, openly contemptuous of us, this appointment defies any other rational explanation.

On a sidenote, in my opinion anybody called Toby should not hold any public position anyway. :lou_wink_2:

Here you go

The only thing a Toby should hold is beer

I read the heading too quickly as thought it said ‘is there a bigger stool’

Still works.

He’s just resigned. I’ll take full credit.

Yep…the cunts that were aware of his past record yet still saw fit to appoint him…and did nothing to remove him in face of the ensuing shit-storm.

A petition of over 200000 signatures declaring him unfit for his position prompts Toby to fall on his sword.

Over 300000 have signed a similar petition for Jeremy Hunt.

Will he do the decent thing?

Will he fuck.

Glad they gave Social Care to Hunt too.

At least he’s a pair of safe hands.

It’s like some kind of sick fucking joke.

He only got health and social care because Mengele and Eichmann were unavailable.

Weird and brilliant from Stewart Lee there, fatstuff.

Sometime around 20 years ago Toby Young started being nasty about people less fortunate and privileged than him, and, like a shit Clarkson, he found it was easy to do and paid good money; and then the wind changed, and Toby Young was stuck with the horrible face he had made. And now people all over the internet will be drawing foreskins on his bald head. For ever. And Captain Von Trapp will never urinate standing up again.
