Social Mobility key to economy

For once Cleggsey gets something right. There is too much wasted talent festering in the lower orders – the bargain basement of the workforce. Social mobility could be worth 140 million to the GDP if everyone had an equal opportunity – unlike Cleggsy himself and Dave. The corollary, of course is that whilst there are those languishing in the mire of hopelessness and cheap bread that should be at the top, there are those at the top enjoying nicer bread and the splendours of having lots of money – and power - who should be cleaning toilets. Cleggsy, when someone keenly pointed out to him that he didn’t do too badly in the birth lottery, said, "I know some people will say I should keep quiet about social mobility, that my birth, my education, and my opportunities mean I have no right to speak up. I couldn't disagree more. If people like me who have benefited from the system don't speak up, we will never get anywhere...I was lucky. But it should not be a question of luck."  He said this when premier minister Dave was well out of the country making sure the system doesn’t relinquish its money and power. If DC was a bright young thing he’d be on ten mill a year lawyering, stock brokering or being a chief exec and running a business as his ilk are supposed. He obviously didn’t make the grade and gets to bungle running the country instead. The government always alludes to the country effectively being a business so the people who run it should know how to run a business. Since leaving higher education our Dave has done precisely what he wanted – working for the conservatives. At least Cleggsy has got his hands dirty a few times. There's the mop and bucket, Dave, and there's the floor.
