Also, young graduates aren't paid enough, & often are working 2 jobs

The #CostOfLivingCrisis = a #costoflearningcrisis that has been flamed by Tory HE policy

I teach Gen Z-ers. They ain't lazy. I know lazy. I was lazy... magnificently so. The kids I teach are studying and work, sometimes two jobs. Sophia's Da was a Baron, I believe. When she mentions her 'peers', she probably means people with peerages.
