How many of those 'flocking to britain' are aged 16-24. So you really think it is just a case of jobs not being to taste? There is a reason that despite unemployment falling, unemployment among young people (16-24) is still rising. I applied for jobs for literally everything, Poundland, bakers, car valeting, cleaning - that's not exactly what I had in mind when applying to go to uni, but I would have done it. I hated being on JSA, the stigma attached, and the condescending, patronising bs you get from the Job Centre. You are treated as a criminal, simply for coming into the job market at the worst time in around 80 years. People are staying in the workforce longer, and with increased competition for jobs, people are putting a premium experience, which you can't get until someone gives you a chance. I'm not saying balance the books solely by raiding older people's savings. But they continue to get tax breaks and benefits that simply are not on offer to younger people, yet it is younger people that are hit hardest by a lot of what has been happening over the past few years.

How much did it cost for your generation to go to uni? I came out over £20k in debt, for my little brother that will be nearer £40k. How much did your first house cost? Probably what I will have to pay as a deposit. Not that anyone my age can get money from banks. Mate of mine has just had to put down £60k deposit on a £200k, run down, shell of a terraced house. Ha, yeah, young people just sit on benefits blah blah. There is no work for young people. I was out of work for 2 years after getting a 2:1 from a Russell Group uni, taking on various work experience and having several pieces of work academically published. Plenty of the young people out of work want to work, there just simply is not any opportunities for them.

That generation have had a lot of benefits that mine certainly won't get. I'm 23, and whilst not advocating totally raiding pensioners, I think it would be fairer if they shouldered at least some of the burden. The last few years have seen everything dumped on my generation, we are effectively paying for previous generations cock-ups.

I am a master RB, crosses like Mr. Whippy. Richardson simply isn't Premiership quality. Much like your grammar. FFS, take a hint from your name and use some capital letters once in a while.

There was no waiting with my prom date, hence why I asked her. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, bring it on. This is going to be a beautiful enemy-ship.

I don't think capsaint was all that serious about finding a nemesis.

Who said anything about that? Artificial insemination fool! Send bear in disguised as a panda, get him to woo her, then 'insert' the pre-loaded panda making fluid into her.

What am I David Attenborough? Don't blame me, I'm just trying to solve this panda crisis. Saving the world one problem at a time.

Shall we just paint bear with black and white stripes and arm him with a syringe full of panda baby gravy?

Worse still, they have charged John Carver. As always, an absolute farce.

Well, that one was 4 really. Maybe I should reincarnate myself as the new MLG?
