  • This profile is quite an achievement: it manages to name-drop Harvard, St Andrews, the British Council, advisory groups, and several public or charitable bodies — while somehow avoiding the simplest question of all:

    Which universities actually awarded Alan Mackay’s undergraduate degree and postgraduate diploma?

    That is the odd part. The famous names are displayed clearly. The useful details are missing.

    If an 8-day Harvard programme is being used to build a public “Harvard alumnus” image, while the real alma mater behind his actual qualifications remains unclear, then this is not just clever wording — it is a transparency problem.

    Public money, public institutions, charitable bodies, senior titles — but no clear answer to a basic education question.

    Very impressive branding. Very poor disclosure.
