@michaelgove When builders aren’t building and white collar hiring has collapsed, who will hire all of their apprentices? We need growth and demand, but that would mean abandoning socialist nonsense.
@AllisonPearson I’d like to know from Elon Musk how far away AI and robots are from doing all the things he claims AI can’t do.
Anyway, builders aren’t building, white collar hiring has collapsed, and so who is going to hire all of his apprentices without growth?
@patmcfaddenmp Housebuilders not buying land and slowing down on building, white collar recruitment collapsing, what’s the plan to increase demand for workers?
@AllisonPearson Apprenticeships or degree. All pointless if economy isn’t growing - demand will be super weak and not enough good jobs for anyone. They just don’t get it.
@patmcfaddenmp@andyburnham Recruitment industry expert of 20 years. You can create all the apprentices you want, but if taxes are too high and profits too low, due to weak growth, it’s utterly pointless.
@AllisonPearson Look at the comments of U.K. listed housebuilders - construction is destroyed.
Look at the comments of U.K. listed recruiters - white collar hiring is destroyed.
@ukhpinfo Distressed sellers? People who simply want to move? Think more intersting that the number is the reason why if you have any insights on this?
@daniel_daggers Could be good? Stamp duty just reduces the number of transactions. I’m guessing, but what do you think given you’re better placed to comment.
You will see this as a determined drive that you have not seen before from a British government.
Buying British not “if possible”, but by design. So every procurement pound supports British jobs, British apprenticeships and British skills. https://t.co/9orb94QfLc
