Hey Bruce, did you ever answer my question about what would happen if I had to go to a hospital in the Czech Republic without my passport or EHIC card........

You keep catching me when I'm tucked up in bed :) I've no idea is the honest answer. Touch wood, I've never been in need of visiting a hospital on visits to Czech.

They are a different culture though, and each citizen has an ID card that they're expected to carry around with them. That's a throwback to the communist era.

Sean Connery wannabe's not very impartial, is he?

Is he wrong though? I've no problem with people discussing the points he raises, but we seem to have fallen into this strange 'experts are bad' world that I can't fathom. I don't think anyone would suggest that experts are always right, but the current alternative seems to be to go instead with a lack of thought and evidence. If people were countering thought and research with thought and research then fine, but that isn't what Gove was saying at all, it was more 'thought and research is bad'. Utterly baffling.

Confirmation bias.
