Young Brits are set to benefit from Dutch style employment support as the Government steps up localised support to tackle rising NEET numbers.

  • Government to open almost 180 Dutch-style Youth Hubs over next two years to tackle rising youth unemployment as nation’s NEET number hits one million

  • Visting the Netherlands, the Work and Pensions Secretary saw how Dutch ‘Jongerenpunt’ youth points are bringing services under one roof, helping them record Europe’s lowest NEET rate

  • Secretary of State vows to learn from the Netherlands’ approach where young people are given multiple chances through work-study pathways, employer partnerships and apprenticeships to build a system where “inactivity is a last resort”

Starmer is a Victorian, this government still thinks of it like workhouses, how to extract toil. Zero thought about having a society where people feel like participants instead of livestock.

The people who run the UK hate its people and want nothing less than to employ them, hell most don't even want to live there any more.
