Britons have expressed mixed views on claims that unemployed youths demand salaries of £40,000 annually. Graham Cowley, who works with disengaged young people, testified that many refuse to work for less, citing their constant internet use. Reactions vary, with some agreeing that £40K is insufficient, especially in London.
In response to the high number of inactive youths, Labour's Work & Pensions Secretary plans a "Youth Guarantee" to ensure access to job training and apprenticeships. Those who decline these opportunities may lose benefits, as leaders highlight the issue of a "wasted generation."
