Plagiarising

Post by Gemini » 22 Nov 2005, 14:28

The UK government is taking very seriously the alleged plagiarising by children of material from the internet for their GCSE course work.
This, coming from the same regime who lifted, verbatim, tracts from a ten year old phd submission, evidencing to the United Nations the presence (now discredited) of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, is a bit rich.

I steal all my POL posts from other forums, verbatim. All I do is change the usernames.

You've got to remember that it was very important, grown up business, and because they hadn't done their homework, they had to copy someone elses.

I'm sure they've learned their lesson now, that they were only cheating other people, not themselves.

Also, I pose as Porty on another board, and re-post his posts from here as if I were him.

I've had offers of marriage and everything, it's nuts how popular the guy is.
