What the hell do you know?

Interesting article from a BBC reporter regarding China's attitude to Ed Milliband. In China they expect a Minister to have bothe expertise and experience in the the area for which they are responsible. A Minister for Health, for example, is expected to have practised as a doctor.

What an interesting concept - MPs that may actually know something about their portfolio! It would never catch on. A Minister for Helath that knew the difference between a large set of muscles on which he sits from a hinged joint in his arm --- No! it could never happen. 

Oh yes - Ed Milliband's is case in point, a Minister for Climate Change who isn't a scientist.
