A generation of entitled little ponces. Well said CF.

These people? Who are "these people" who are constantly being referenced here, other people who have committed the heinous crime of simply not being like you? Reading this thread is as depressing and saddening as reading that bastion of all that is truly shameful about Britain, the daily mail. Depressing

Yes, there as a point. But it was ill thought out, unattainable, and at the outset was presented to the public in a deceptive manner. And now "Vietnam" has become a metaphor for any large scale military cluster-f*kc. After the war in Vietham the communists stopped trying to spread to contested areas. Russia and China saw what the cost would be. I don't think your narrative of a terrible war ....which it was....deals with what ifs...it forgos what would have happened without it. When you say it was ill thought out.....This was a time before the extent of weakness was known for democracies to fight wars aboard.....The previous generations had helped win world wars.

A generation of entitled little ponces. Rah rah rah the young generation are lazy and entitled. Load of s***e. It's incredibly difficult to progress for millennials. People often can't buy a house till their 30s education is incredibly costly and are saddling young people with debt. The job market is oversaturated and productivity is at all time low and that is reflected in real term wages being lower. You could buy a house or be given one by the state on an average low skill job back in the day. Yet they are politically illiterate because they vote against the unfairness of the current system and are angry that older people who have some nostalgic bulls*** view of little England have further damaged their opportunities by things like Brexit. Whether or not they know how to use an iPad or don't like the smiths has nothing to do with it.

The manipulation of the housing market is what has fvcked over the younger generation big time. Those in charge of housing policy in the 80's- where the perniciousness began - should hang their heads in shame at their betrayal for the many millions of UK kids from back then who are in their 30's now, and with more to come behind them in their twenties, and the rest after them for the foreseeable future.

Nothing to do with the 3 plus million Europeans who have come here during the last ten years then?

I'd argue that this is one of the worst times to be young. No chance of getting a house / flat because wages are s***. They've been through a s***storm of exam changes mid course at school, They're the first generation for a long time that will be worse off than their parents. If you want to train to go into public service, nurse, plod, teacher etc you've got to get into a s*** load of debt. If you want a good job you probably need a degree with the debts involved, if academia isn't your bag, where are the training schemes or apprenticeships (I moaned about yts but do know a few people who did well out of it career wise). I could add more. No wonder many of the young have got the hump (but it's easier to dismiss glibly as we have seen on this thread) than to try and see things from their perspective. What you describe is not ideal but you can't really think the young have it hard compared to the past? The baby boomers and their kids had it good in some ways but overall the youth today have a relatively soft life.
