Charlie Stayt said it was the best smile of the day.

Who am I to argue? 😅

Let’s all keep this vibe going this weekend.☀️ #BBCBreakfast

Manchester youth employment charity BREAKOUT opens first programme as demand grows for better pathways into work https://t.co/sN8YVOowAb #pressrelease

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

Kicked off my day on @LBC sharing this story.

A young man lost his job.
The Job Centre never even asks to see his CV.🤯

Just: 35 hours of job search every week.

If that’s the support on offer, we shouldn’t be surprised when the system struggles.

Young people deserve better.

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

Great to join @iancollinsuk on @TalkTV discussing youth unemployment.

I meet brilliant young people who do want to work.

I also speak to employers who want to help but are overwhelmed and unsure where to start.

We need to build structured pathways that work for both. 🤷‍♂️

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

Delighted to be at the @4EVERManchester #FMBDAY26 with team @Bupa - it’s nothing but good vibes! 💯🚀

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

Every day at RISE UP we meet young people who WANT to work.
When you give them paid pathways, support and a fair chance, they thrive.
The ‘lazy youth’ narrative belongs in the bin 👊

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

I said this live on BBC One yesterday and I won’t walk it back:
That headline is utterly ridiculous.

‘Young people won’t work for less than £40k’?
Come on. 🤯

Young people aren’t entitled.
They’re navigating broken systems.

[Helen Whately MP @Helen_Whately]

200,000 more young people are out of a job today compared to a year ago.

I visited Rise Up - a fabulous charity in Manchester - to see how they’re helping young people get work-ready and into jobs.

We can’t afford to lose a generation of talent.

[LBC @LBC]

‘We’re painting all young people with the same brush.’

Roman, who works in youth employment, tells @NickFerrariLBC he’s wrong about Gen Z’s work ethic.

[LBC @LBC]

'There are people in the jobs office telling people not to work?'
'Exactly that.'
'That's crazy.'

Charity worker @RomanDibden reveals young people are being advised to stay on benefits as they won't be able to afford 'disproportionately high rents'.

@TomSwarbrick1 is stunned.

[Roman Dibden @RomanDibden]

Really good to join the wonderful @rosiewright99 on @TimesRadio this morning! ❤️ Thanks for shining a light on the current youth employment crisis!

Young people do want to work and I truly believe they deserve more than the current cards they are being dealt!
