Stay on till 18 or PRISON?

WHAT?

The government has announced it's new rule that it wants kids to stay on at school till the age of 18 or failing that they have to find some sort of training scheme. If not these unlucky souls face being given an anti social behaviour order and if they still can't find a job then they face the prospect of PRISON!

I have a sneaky feeling that Alan Johnson MP, and Minister for Idiotic Ideas....sorry Education Secretary, has been drinking heavily or maybe he has a serious drug problem because this solution to a problem is absurd?

Point one, only a few short weeks ago the government stated there were no spaces in the country's prisons and young offender centres; point two, it is difficult enough to catch the kids who are 'bunking off' and they still haven't got that right yet.


I wonder with this government if they sit in their parlimentary rooms eating hash cakes, drinking trebles and making the most ridiculous decisions because of this. Nothing makes sense anymore and it appears as though the Labour party have put their hands in the air and are saying "We don't want to be in charge any more" We're cr*p and let someone else take over".

"Education, Education, Education" were the buzz words at the beginning of the Labour party rule and now the only answers we have are old man Liberal and fuddy fuzzy Tory.

Can I emigrate? Pilot
