BENEFITS OF APPRENTICESHIPS

Nearly every employer that takes on an apprentice (96%) reports benefits to their business:

• 72% of businesses report improved productivity as a result of employing an apprentice – the average Apprenticeship increases business productivity by £214 a week, with gains which include increased profits, lower prices and better products.

• 75% of apprentice employers say their Apprenticeship programme has helped cut recruitment costs and 80% agree that Apprenticeships will play a greater role in their future recruitment policy, resulting in lower staff turnover, fewer skills-related vacancies and reduced recruitment costs.

‘Payments is a unique and growing industry. The way we work means you can’t simply buy in talent and knowledge, and we identified a knowledge gap. As it stood, we didn’t have the people to fill it, so we built our Apprenticeship programme.’ James Lawrence, Next Generation Talent, Visa Europe

• Improved brand image and greater customer satisfaction – 81% of consumers favour using a company which takes on apprentices.

‘There were numerous soft benefits which help brand and reputation, which we’re very proud of. Our apprentices are so articulate and have great stories and narratives to share. They’re a success inside and outside Barclays.’ Mike Thompson, Director Early Careers, Barclays

• Increased employee satisfaction and engagement as a result of hiring apprentices, with 88% of employers believing they help create a more motivated and loyal workforce.

I'm talking about the German economy and education system more than anything else. They have a strategy to succeed whereas Britain deals with the devil. Britain doesn't have to function properly so long as London remains the centre of global banking.

And then we have the tyranny of the British judiciary which will not go away outside of the EU. Yes, we have the EU charter on Human rights but no one but the British judiciary interprets the charter in such a liberal and dysfunctional way. And health and safety policy is far more practical in Spain than it is in Britain. In this country we interpret the law like a bellend and so to leave the EU charter is not to leave behind dysfunction.

I went to a working class school and I remember
My first day in secondary school being told what
It took to be an apprentice tradesman, the grades
You needed to achieve it were a piece of piss

Never did they say this is what you need to be
A doctor, a surgeon, a vet etc not that that was
In reach given the college fees involved

Apprenticeships are great but shouldn't be
The route the working classes are guided
Down, we don't get the true cream of the
Crop rising to the top jobs because of it

We end up with spoilt rich kids with half a
Brain or as over here the farmers useless
Son or daughter running the country and
Running it into the ground

There should be a system where only the
People with the highest grades make the
Best university, money shouldn't dictate that
Or where you are from

Thanks kerma, it's a holiday weekend here
The suns out I've a tent and a car boot full of
Beer and hitting the beach

Don't work too hard

The ordinary person on the continent, particularly western and northern Europe, is more left-liberal than the english-speaking west.

However, there's a much larger strain of bourgeoisie sandal-wearing liberality in the english-speaking west. The proles in Europe are to the left of English proles, but the British bourgeoisie are more liberal than the French.

Working class leftiness is stronger in France and middle class leftiness is stronger in England: Put the price of cheese up in France and they'll riot, utter a sliver of crimethink in England and they'll have you sacked. The leftiness is different in France than it is in England.

And degenerate Hollywood is to blame. The middle class gets more of its impression of reality from the television and the media. And so if the middle class is english-speaking it's informed more by colour-blind and culture void which is Hollywood. The fact that the continent doesn't speak English as first language to some extent protects them from the American degenerate contagion.

Where a western country speaks English it's left wing is American, politically correct, and pro-immigration.

Where a western country doesn't speak English the left wing is unAmerican, socialist, and more concerned with helping the native poor.

Or in other words Europe has more political option. The American way is two identical systems one with more political correctness and tax and the other with less. The degree of welfarism and goodspeak is the only option. And although America purports itself to be more capitalist the size of the American bureaucracy dwarfs Europe, and the American is more likely to drop out of the workforce and live off benefits.
