Ed says he's going to take benefits away from young people unless they sign up for training.

Train to do what, Ed? Will you have jobs lined up for them at the end of their training?

Hm?

No, sorry, it's not doing it for me. You can't make that all-important contact with the electorate so you sidle a few centimetres further to the right. And take a swipe at the young because, hey, the fuckers don't vote.

"Do you like me now?"

No, Ed, I'm afraid not. In fact every time you open your mouth I like you less.

Conviction? I'm not seeing it.

Passion? Don't make me laugh.

Ideas? Is making life tougher for the young really your best shot?

Besides, you look like a twit.

Step aside, please. Let someone else have a go.

He sounds like our PM.

We've had training schemes for a while now, and as a result, every unemployed person is a trained barista who also knows how to pull a beer and what the laws are on serving alcohol to minors. And many of them have actual certificates saying that they know how to use the internet.

It's the same across the Western world- this is a generation of politicians who don't have a clue...

Certificates for THAT? Someone's clearly asleep at the wheel here!
