Neets



Deborah Orr: He failed to stand up for the people most in need - Independent Online Edition > Deborah Orr

Many of the young people classed as Neets (not in education, employment or training) are caught between a wider culture of aspiration and a failure, for all sorts of significant reasons, to access the skills-based economy. They dream of the easy and plentiful money they see in the media, or opt to join the supply side of easily accessible market in illegal drugs, and reject the reality of hard-earned, meagre wages.
