It seems that all politicians' PR advisors have decided that no statement can be made without the backdrop of the national (and EU for those who are still members) flag."I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it would prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square."

With the longsince demise of serialism, I don't think people are intuitively at ease with 12-note organisation, hence the old adage "As dead as a dodecaphonist" ...or whatever the expression was.
Anyway, there's no need for anyone to get crotchety over this.
