Most of my mates got sent to Swanhunbers or Biggers Armstrongs.

On the Scotswood Road because they were blue collar.

And it was assumed that that would be a trajectory in life.

It's not like that anymore because jobs are changing so fast.

So unless we can inculcate creativity, agility, communication, collaboration together as skills in young people from the outset, we're not going to set them up.

We're not even setting them up now.

Never mind what's going to happen in the future.

Everyone.

I was down in Bristol the other day.

It's not dissimilar.

You know, parts of the southeast, parts of London.

I mean, everybody thinks, you know, everybody in the northeast thinks London's like boomtown.

But go to parts of Islington.

Oh, my word.

You know, there's huge levels of deprivation, big, big, big, big issues.

And so I think this is honestly, I think it's an issue that is one that genuinely can unite the whole country together.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So there'll be two reports coming out.

So one before the summer, then one in the autumn.

So absolutely delighted to know.
