I hope they all had media studies degrees, hipster glasses, flesh tunnel earrings, a sleeve of tattoos and skinny jeans and access to at least 3 products made by Apple or I wouldn't think them qualified.

I like that motivational poster that shows you this bearded hippy graduate saying at the top " its the governments fault I cannot get a decent job in my field" and at the bottom is says " Masters degree in medievil archetecture"

Give her a quick gut shot - that'll slow the hobbit down. Pesky Hobbitses

Really, to cut down the amount of people going for these kind of jobs, they should open up auditions to "Mincing with the stars" or "Mincing on Ice", "X fucktor", "Big Mother", "I'm a Celebri-Twat, leave me in the jungle" etc - all who apply should be taken behind a curtain and shot in the face. Twice.

There - I've just cured the UK of idiots in one quick and easy method

Just need something to take care of the politico's now...
