Apparently he's forgotten everything he might ever have known about the complexity of human traits. Or, alternatively, he saw that the UK gov't hired a eugenicist as an advisor and saw opportunity to get people talking about himself again so that he doesn't fade into obscurity.

He is nevertheless making an objectively false statement which carries with it the dismissal of the importance of a large and dismal history.
