He was talking about as a 16 year old he had no money and qualifications and achieved that and I asked is that something a vote for labour encourages.
you seem a bit slow?
Right here we go again. You really are terribly informed on literally every topic. It’s quite impressive, you’d think that even by law of averages you’d happen across an informed take on something.
Under Labour vocational education was far more highly valued, and adult and further education far better funded.
The number of kids leaving at 16 dropped dramatically under Labour and those that didn’t achieve had EMA and funding for adult numeracy and literacy. All of this was swept away in 2010 when the Tories came in and Gove did his “I’m an expert me” but and thought vocational training was too easy and what kids needed was a copy of the bible and to read some Shakespeare.
Coursework and modular examinations where less academic students can achieve were scrapped and years of efforts to put vocational and academic education out into reverse.
Under the Tories investment in in work training has declined, adult education has declined, social mobility has declined.
The only slow person around here is you, you living example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
