The phenomenon of the bong-smoking, shiftless, petty criminal chav lout, who goes around impregnating multiple women in every council estate in Britain, is one of the reasons why British national life has declined to the extent it has. The recent spate of knife-crime in Britain, which has attracted so much attention from the media, is caused by young men of that type.
Really, these people are copying their parents’ behaviour - because it’s more than likely that their dads behaved in exactly the same manner. So the daughters of these men will end up becoming chav Vicki Pollard mums themselves, and their sons will end up becoming chavscum males - thus passing it on, from generation to generation…
In Australia, it’s the same, if not worse. We have 770,000 people on the single parent’s pension.
The solution is not to vote Tory, but to sterilise these men while they’re teenagers - any young man wearing a baseball cap and gold chains becomes a candidate for a compulsory vasectomy. Great way of avoiding excessive population growth as well.
Jobs are key to stable family life, say Tories
Women opt for single parenthood as pool of ‘marriageable’ men
dwindles
Gaby Hinsliff, political editor
The Observer, Sunday July 20, 2008
Marriage and family life could be boosted by getting more jobless
young men into work, the Tories will argue this week in a
controversial new approach to single motherhood.
Shadow cabinet minister David Willetts said it was hardly surprising
pregnant girls were raising their children alone, if the alternative
was settling down with a man who had no means of supporting a family
and no visible prospects.
Getting more so-called ‘Neets’ - teenagers ‘Not in Education,
Employment or Training’ - back on track with a new £100 million fund
for training could also help stabilise family life, he will argue.
Willetts has been influenced by US research suggesting
the ‘marriageable pool’ of men in some cities is now dangerously low
given the number of young men in prison, on drugs or on welfare. The
argument reflects the emergence of a new moral theme in Tory
politics, following David Cameron’s suggestion last week that some
black men should take more responsibility for their children.
‘When these young men have got a useful skill and are then holding
down a job, at that point they will also be able to hold down a
relationship, ‘ Willetts told The Observer. ‘They will be people who
can then live up to family responsibilities. One of the things some
of the young lone parents say is, where are the reliable men with
whom they can have a stable relationship?
‘There is a particular problem about young, white, working-class men
and we are not providing them with the first steps to useful skills.
When we do that I believe that could make them much better bets as a
partner.’
Willetts said while the Tories were also producing ideas to shore up
marriage through the tax system, ‘another crucial factor’ was
finding jobs for young men. ‘One of the American academics who
studies the problem of young people in the US, William Julius
Wilson, has got a theory that the marriageable pool of young men in
some American cities, once you think of the guys who are in
prison … or are unemployable, is very small. What we are saying is
we want to give young men the opportunity of holding down a decent
income.’
His intervention came as research from the London School of
Economics published yesterday suggested that official estimates that
around 7 per cent of 16- to 18-year-olds are Neets could be an
underestimate, with the real figure closer to 18 per cent.
The Tories will publish a paper on skills this week, setting out how
they would encourage more apprenticeships and create a £100 million
fund allowing social enterprises such as charities to provide
vocational training. He will argue further education colleges have
been encouraged to ‘churn out’ teenagers with paper qualifications,
but that many Neets have already dropped out at school and do not
want to study for exams.
Research by the thinktank Reform has suggested Neets are more likely
than their peers to use drugs, to be involved in crime, to have poor
health and crucially, to have children young: nearly two-thirds of
Neet girls were mothers by the age of 21, six times the rate in the
rest of the population.
Willetts said while the majority of teenagers able to get A-levels
would find university places, there were ‘massive barriers’ for many
Neets in finding an apprenticeship or training.
Marriage and family life is likely to be a key battleground at the
next election. John Denham, secretary of state for skills,
said: ‘Skills are important for many reasons which is why, among
other things, the Labour government has rescued apprenticeships from
collapse under the Tories.’
