500N,
I don't want to keep banging on my my day job on the forum but that is exactly what I keep telling the students. Ask them to do a bit of research and you never get original work never mind anything that has at least had some meaningful scrutiny. We have a generation already in the system that work like that because that is all they know. The frightening thing is that these folk are working within all professional levels. Look at how the various scandals in Health, Social Work, Justice, Parliament etc are explained away with so many words that mean nothing.
I honestly believe that it is a serious affliction - from the so called dodgy dossier to the nonsense that we see in management and the idiotic double speak that infects policy formation within MoD, DPA/DLO and indeed the Services. We are loosing the ability to properly articulate the great issues of the day. God help us - so this is how empires fall! I'm getting old, I need a grumpy meter
