Whereas apprenticeships used to be unpopular with the youth of the day( badly underpaid for 5 or 6 years)I think nowadays they are the gateway to earning a good income.
Have any of us tried to get the services of a plumber/gas service engineer or electrician at short notice?
As for the question of colour it shouldn't come into it,but alas it does with predjudice on both sides of the divide. A person should be judged by their merits not pigeon-holed as a special case,due to his or her colour.
Any prospective employer who lets the applicants colour become a deciding factor,doesn't deserve the position of authority and should be dealt with with the exsisting laws.
As for the single parent issue,how did all the World War 1&2 widows manage to bring up their children?
