No hope then for the kids today when they are forced to have to put up with the troublemakers and there is no real sanction to keep them under control any more.

Still with school being so much more like prison it should at least help familiarise with the environment they will probably have a greater likelihood of being dragged down into experiencing.

It does make me think of quite what “high quality” training the govt is going to offer them.

What courses will take up the two years of the youths time and no doubt give the employer a qualification that they will regard as worthy.

Maybe it will just turn ou to be a farce, lots of make work, courses in fluffology - otherwise known as media studies- and the like.

Bet you Gordon already has hie beady glass eye on another tax hike to pay for it all.
