Strikes

[Treble]

Minimum service levels, they’re having a ****ing laugh. Service levels are disintegrating across all public services due to a decade of underinvestment, exacerbated by staff shortages due to **** wages.

The bill will prove unworkable, just the latest in the litany of Tory failures, designed to distract the attention of the weak minded from the robbery being committed against the taxpayer by the worst government in British history.

Very much this. When you've got Rees-Mogg of all ppl slamming it over the "Henry VIII clauses" good luck getting it through the House of Lords.

And even if they do get it through, good luck sacking workers in public sector when you're desperately trying to retain and recruit tens of thousands of staffing shortfalls in every single public sector there is. It's without substance and purely designed to play to the gallery.

the salient point being it is only repayable if you earn a certain amount take out a normal loan and they don't write it off because you work in the public sector don't earn enough .

The salient point being it's debt all but in name. You owe money, until xx amount of time has expired or it is paid back in full. Loans, Mortgages are all forms of debt, but student loans have their own set criteria of repayment, different from normal bank loans.

I think I remember hearing about a situation one time, where someone avoided working some extra hours, because to do so would have meant a repayment kicking in, either that or I just made that up in my head lol.

It's either 20 or 25 years, I cant remember what they told us. If anything is left outstanding at that time, its wiped. Not like you're going to get a degree, work for 25 years and not make any repayments back, though. It's a loan.

lots were doing precisely that which is why they changed the rules to try and get some of the dosh back .
In 2020-21 there were over 500000 graduates but there are no way near that many jobs paying a large graduate uplift.

Sorry what was you saying about Moggs

You still on strike?

Thought this would have all been over by now, what with the power of the people and all that, how much has it cost you so far, I dread to think.

So you read it? Well done lol

Why don't you quote me again where I said parents should pay for books... and actually show that I didn't

 

[duggie2000]

Yeah I did a few, I remember doing one at an Estate Agents, got rewarded for it to - but it was so fooking boring, especially in the shop/office - it was ok, when we went out to look at properties, I quite liked that bit. Wondering to myself at the time why someone would buy an old shack in the middle of no where.

Tut, tut Thats no way to speak about St James Park

I was sent to the Job Centre for a weeks work experience. I honestly think it was the school being funny and a sly dig about how they seen my future. I enjoyed it, though. They had a whip round for me and everything at the end of the week.

My work experience was in the local Water Company in the pumping station, spent all day looking at a load of dials, no thanks

My first job strangely enough was at a different Water Company in the Estimating Dept, spent a lot of time out on site and was trained as a Plumber, I could be called a Plumber because I could wipe a lead joint, plumbers that cant no matter what qualifications they have are merely fitters

For the train fare home?

Lol, Blair had them all studying media degrees, hence why you said, 'Apprenticeships is becoming huge and a good alternative to degrees with a lot of employers coming on board to work with schools as a pathway into a wide range of industries.'

Kids taking the correct path now, we can see that from the conversations since yesterday in the comments. Imagine Blair Starmer get's in power, they will be forcing them in to the workplace again, by pricing them out of education.

Like your idea yesterday of charging the kids for their books and pens, maybe I should write to my local Labour MP, and pass on your tremendous idea. Fook the poor, buy a bike.

That is Pinkie not Treble

 

[pieguts]

Do in this village. I get mine delivered.

I was the richest kid in school when I was on the milk. No shame here.

I managed to save enough to get a 10 speed racing bike, which I doubt very much my parents would have bought me.

I can see both being correct.

It's called student loan in name and it is a debt.

However it's not really a debt, who in their right mind would lend money out with the proviso you wouldn't get it back.

It doesn't go against your credit score. You don't have to pay it back. You only pay extra if and when you earn above a x amount and even then you pay it off super slowly.

I was going to say it's a good thing mate, but then paused because I know what todays traffic is like, way different to when I was a kid that's for sure.
