The Labour Government

What exactly do you want him to say?

Badenoch in PMQ doing the same - trying to embarrass the government over past comments. How exactly would that help anything with the UK's having to deal with Trump?

How did sending Labour staff over to the US to work on the Harris campaign ‘help anything with the UK’s having to deal with Trump?’.

I just think youngsters need to realize that there are many more options than Higher Education.
As you said earlier, apprenticeships seem to be underrated. As does the premise of entering the workforce at any level, building transferrable skills and then utilizing what you have gained into a better job/career.
Being in the workforce also leads to contacts and networking, which is also extremely useful.

I see too many youngsters who have been allowed unrealistic expectations and then been saddled with student debt because nobody told them the options

Whilst there's nothing wrong with what you are saying in principle the issue is neither the economy or the education system is configured to support this model anymore. The ability to progress organically through the workforce and achieve social mobility has deteriorated hugely in recent years. Too many jobs in too many industries are low paid and/or heavily stratified. It's no good changing the education system without making structural changes within the job market and economy as a whole. Whether the new government has the appetite to do this and reverse the trends remains to be seen.

Nice try.

Do you anticipate ending up having to deal with Trump, or do you try to prevent it?

Yeah, I know, you could just leave it to the Americans, but if you think a Trump presidency is a threat to the security of Europe should you "do nothing"?
