Yet his family couldnt breed out the balding and the white eyebrows gene ): on a more serious note though, when I first read that article I actually couldn't believe it

His family couldn't breed out the weak academic performance.. he received a conditional offer from Oxford based on the lowest standard of 3Bs and a C and after a massive effort still failed to meet even that low standard

The guy didn't even tell the truth about why the lecture was cancelled! Maybe he has truth-resistant genes!

I know Adam and he's a decent guy. I also agree with him that people are not goals at football matches and that welfare families are a real problem. I disagree with his eugenicist tendencies as much as I do with Essie Viding's conclusions.

I have no idea if he's a "decent guy". What is clear beyond doubt is that he lacks both a grasp of basic statistics and any knowledge of the UK welfare system. Hence the obvious, fundamental errors in his published work.
