Today a major report on the welfare state in Denmark was published and occupied most of the news. Then there was a major interview with the report’s main author which for some reason Gwen wanted to watch. (Nothing to do with wanting to stay up later I’m sure).
I only had half an ear on it as I am busily trying to get four chapters written before next Thursday for a handbook on e-learning for the disabled. However at one point Gwen pipes up ‘What I don’t understand is that first they say that they want to stop people retiring because there’ll be nobody to do their jobs and then they say that the immigrants are a problem because they haven’t got any jobs!’
I honestly didn’t do or say anything to prompt this.
