Andrew Neil appears to have never recovered from the low opinion of his politics tutor at Glasgow University. Neil was the leader of the Conservative club at the university and his tutor Dr Vince Cable (who later went on to lead the Liberal Democrats) was at that time a Labour Councillor in Glasgow.
Perhaps he thinks he might have got a better degree if he had been tutored by a Tory, but they were few and far between in Glasgow at that time. His opinions and actions still often come across as those of a childish student bearing a grudge.
