Comment on Our workless young: a scandal we cannot ignore

Makes total sense. Young people must make every effort to leave the UK rapidly. Stagnant wages (graduate jobs starting salaries are the same as 2004), 20 round interviews to get said grad job if you are “lucky”, rental prices will take 60% of salary, student loans will be an extra 9% tax on your earnings for life because you will never pay principal off (let alone the interest), you’ll be sharing a flat in London with other 30 somethings because nobody can afford to own, no privacy, a government which exorbitantly taxes your money - only to give it to pensioners who sit in Spain and rent out their house they bought in 1960 for a pack of jelly babies. And you wonder why young people don’t work? When the game is rigged, the answer is not to play.
