Government: Errm, could you please not look at the actual evidence, but rather at the message reclassification sends out? We really want to reclassify this stuff you know.

Professor: Bogof. I'm a scientist. I look at evidence. The evidence does not support your plans for reclassification.

Government: Oh well. We'll just ignore the scientific advice we sought from you and reclassify anyway.

Professor: Twerp.

Government" What? You're fired!

Just about summs it up.
