Unemployment payments to u25's should be increased for those with better academic qualifications. This might cement into place the idea of how important education is especially to those 14-16 year olds.Words fail me - which is probably just as well.

Idea of the week
It's the kind of misleading headline I get so angry about - ‘Idea of the week’. Am I about to reproduce something special? That would depend on your definition of ‘special’ or to put it another way, “No”. This week’s idea is courtesy of the Labour party’s fresh ideas website. Since it would appear to have no policies of its own, or as it puts it a “two year blank piece of paper”, it has invited the general public to make suggestions and after careful vetting the best… er… ideas appear in the comments section:
I have often apologized to a good friend of mine in London for the, shall we say, less than brilliant ideas that the U.S. of A. exports from its golden shores.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering when this idea will appear over here. Sounds like a winner. (sigh)
