I suppose Andy the Handy-Wringer will talk about getting NEETS back into work but needs to recognise the damage done to employing young people and casual labour I particular with Reeves and Starmer’s disastrous NI and minimum wage hikes and then Rayner’s brainless day one employment rights. Taking these three ludicrous policies you’re left with only the public sector being able to afford to hire particularly young people. Remind me again who votes Labour?
All those who believe all our problems can be solved if we tax the rich to help the poor but sadly the truth is "You can NEVER help the poor by destroying the rich."
An interesting development on employment policy. The devil is in the detail, but I see no obvious issues getting from here to there. And helping people entering the world of work find their niche is an ideal solution. Providing services to charities at the same time is an excellent idea. I'd vote for this.
I don't think very highly of the third sector and would like it reduced in size, not subsidised with free labour. I would rather the NEETS subsidise the private sector.
What happens to the paid 25+ year olds in the displaced by this flood of free labour?
What do we do with the NEET who thinks the only meaningful job is blatant activism, the only skill worth having is social media and who expects to be paid no matter how little they know or do?
Not all work is good work - agreed.
However, I lived my life on the basis that work is better than no work.
You never worked at PC World.
Haha, no I didn't but I had some bad jobs, the freezing noisy dusty miserable timber yard springs to mind.

💯 agree with you.

As we discussed recently there needs to be an element of National Service in the job mix.
