Think they’ve been given a police escort to the station and stuck on a train. Regardless of your politics, could you be arsed? Saturday, good weather, Qatar v Switzerland to look forward to.
Qatar vs Switzerland, who'd want to miss that?

It happens every few months. They come for the attention. Last time there were fewer of them and more of the vegan lesbians and it got quite hairy (in the sense it wasn’t already).Surely if the roundabout painters were looking to march somewhere and garner support, you'd think they would have thought of a better place than Brighton with it's blue haired vegan Lesbian brigade ?
Somebody needs to have a word with their PR team.![]()
Best country in the world. Link won’t work. It’s a woman in a motorised wheelchair being pushed over by police trying to break a cordon.

It seems like a sticky plaster if they are trying to copy the Netherlands, but we'll see, I can't see what they are offering the kids any different other than creating hub locations, much like we had job centres.![]()
UK to roll out Dutch-style employment support across Britain
Young Brits are set to benefit from Dutch style employment support as the Government steps up localised support to tackle rising NEET numbers.www.gov.uk
It seems like a sticky plaster if they are trying to copy the Netherlands, but we'll see, I can't see what they are offering the kids any different other than creating hub locations, much like we had job centres.
The reason it works in the Netherlands because the minimum wage is lower.
We would have been fine with it if Rachel Reeves hadn't put a lot of people out of work with her increases. This always seems to get missed for some reason.
Then to try and offer £2,000 as a one off incentive is taking the piss, the businesses likely to have benefited from that have already shut down, gone to the wall due to the chancellor.
I'm sure Pinkie can afford to take on one of these young people, or the reality is maybe not and therein lays the problem for all small businesses.
of course it would never be your beloved Labour Party to blame, no sireee. Absolute bullshit mate and you ****ing know it. Small businesses were tumbling and Reeves didn't care, another millionaire (Keir) in power and you are sucking up to it.The reason no one is hiring, pretty much anywhere, is **** all to do with Rachel Reeves. It's down to that bloated orange ****gibbon Pres in the US of A, setting fire to a world that was already strruggling to recover from Covid; and in our case, Brexit.

Reeves and Starmer don't care about you, they are never likely to drink or eat in the establishments we may do, why don't you buy them another bottle of whiskey like you did your wealthy union guy, you utter mug.
The hospitality and care sectors, and organisations that hire young people, had been hit the hardest by mounting employment costs, the CIPD said. About 37% of employers that hired people under 21 reported that the NICs changes had increased their employment costs to a large extent, compared with 23% of employers that do not hire young people, despite under-21s being exempt from employer NICs.
The organisation is urging the government to step up efforts to support the employment and training of young people and ensure that proposed changes to the employment rights bill do not act as a further barrier to their recruitment.

Next boss warns of 'dramatic' fall in entry-level jobs
Lord Wolfson tells the BBC Next now typically receives double the number of applicants for one role than it did two years ago.www.bbc.co.uk
Lord Simon Wolfson told the BBC that just two years ago, Next typically received 10 applicants for every job in its shops, but that number had since risen to 19.
"That doubling of applicants for shop jobs is indicative of just how big the crisis is in youth unemployment at the moment," he said.
Conservative peer Lord Wolfson also called on the government to reverse its hike in the rate employers have to pay in National Insurance, along with minimum wage rises.
All because of Rachel Reeves. Even John Healey resigned yesterday because he didn't get the money he was promised. Yet they were on the opposition benches for 14 ****ing years, yet they came to office with NO PLAN!
I'm not even suggesting someone else would do any better, but Andy Burnham certainly believes he can.

Give your head a wobble you mean, sorry mate but your one line cracs don't work with me.Give your head a wobble ffs.
Oh good of you to be selective, I purposly posted several views, that top half came from your beloved Guardian.Conservative peer Lord Wolfson? Yeah, alright![]()
Give your head a wobble ffs. How recently were you saying employers should wean themselves off cheap foreign labour? Now you're saying it's okay to hire kids and pay them a pittance, so long as they're serving you a double espresso.
The hospitality sector is ****ed because nobody is spending money, not because they can no longer exploit kids for pocket money. Which is hardly surprising since Brexit has made us all 6% poorer.
Plenty of good, reasonably high tier restaurants down here that are busy most nights of the week and still making very little if anything. Overall staff hours are being cut, cheaper produce sought, things that need fixing/upgrading not being done etc. to keep them bumbling along but it can’t continue and if that’s the case here it’ll be worse in most towns/cities.
**** knows how anybody is keeping a pub going.
