That is because it is their own people who are responsible - trahison des 
clercs?  This is squarely with the AHRC - the government is hardly composed 
of deep thinkers who could be accused of comprehending the issues - and the 
chief executive of the AHRC hold a Chair of Biblical Criticism (Old 
Testament presumably, from his stern and unbending stance...) at St Andrews. 
Perhaps the petition might more usefully be directed at the University of St 
Andrews?
