UK

staring at clouds

so we started by bemoaning the lack of graduates, then went to preferentially importing immigrants with the right skills, then with extreme reluctance admitted that women might be able to do the job, completely ignored all the people over 40 with the required skills and now we've gone back to immigration again.

I could weep

the country doesn't make anything worth exporting any more, our tourism industry looks set to fail, we ignore and belittle the people who do have skills that might dig the country out of the mess it's in and our politicians and senior management, who got us into this state, are telling us that the easy times are over.
