Why do we respond as if we are scientific illiterates on any new aspect of this area?
The proportion of illiterates in this particular intake was much greater than the general average of all such recruits joining at primary training centres.
I heard this morning about one local education authority operating a course for adult illiterates.
There are now 100 million more adult illiterates than there were 20 years ago.
When did this country ever deny to illiterates the right to vote?
They should not expect of illiterates work that they cannot do, and thus deprive them of their livelihood.
We have 3 million adult illiterates in this country, which is a fairly sombre commentary on the system as a whole.
We do not sit there as illiterates; we try to administer the law and attempt to listen very carefully to everything that is said.
