Are Gen Z too spoilt? Feat. Carole Malone & Andy West | Jeremy Vine

[@AlexMasri]

Oh, sure, Gen Z has it so easy with no affordable housing, a collapsing NHS, jobs that pay barely enough to survive but require 3 rounds of interviews, every qualification under the sun, and years of experience. And let’s not forget the cheap cost of living! The list of perks goes on and on. Really, they’ve got it made, don’t they?

[@Claire-dg3gh]

You forgot the crippling debt.

[@BritWolf1]

I think they'd rather have a house, a functioning country and a future. But that's all gone now.. Take away their future all they've got is the present. So they don't want to work for nothing and want to enjoy the present as much as possible, can't blame them.

[@BritWolf1]

I guess when they got no hope of a house or future, they gotta try enjoy the present more.

[@ruthhadfield9726]

work ethic for the older generation meant being a doormat for their employer. sorry the younger generation arent having it anymore

[@danpepper2525]

"and that's why they were a great generation but that's not you" savage but loved it 😂

[@SFRZRD]

I wish British people had the intelligence and self restraint to see this awful show for what it is - rage bait for views.

[@WaniZame]

Nailed it. Vine is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

[@nellestanton771]

Couldn't agree more! Overpaid bunch of idiots stoking up trouble ...Jeremy is the same on his radio show

[@totallybored5526]

And yet here you are engaging 😂

[@dominiclawson5362]

the British perfected trash television

[@nellestanton771]

He and his team even managed to get the dates wrong for the decades ...I am a boomer as born 1962 ..that decade ends 1964 ...think Jeremy 'moved' the dates to suit his own age demographic ...he missed the idiotic nonsense tribe 👍

100% wet wipes

[@AndyCarrington-cf3ib]

Im sure gen z would love all the luxuries their parents enjoyed such as affordable housing, job security, final pension salary schemes and energy bills not hitting the stratosphere

[@aacmove]

I was born in 1966. I could never afford to buy a property so I left the UK in 2001. I was made redundant in the early 90s and worked at low paid jobs in my teens. We've all bloody struggled. Difference is my last job was 8 years my current job 24. Since 17 I've been unemployed 3 months. My house is paid off, I have no debt and money in the bank. Because I know money in my pocket is better than scrounging for scraps and whinging about how crap life is.

[@sarries1]

The idea of having an 'essential' coffee machine may seem crazy, however I would point out that Gen z have moved on from what alot of boomers would have deemed essential such as cigarettes and alcohol (although they would not admit it) I am sure they would swap their coffee machine for an affordable house or final salary pension scheme in a heartbeat.

[@totallybored5526]

Boomers playgrounds were bombsites, houses with no indoor plumbing and beaten at home and school, Gen Z “can’t live without coffee machines😭”.

[@sarries1]

@totallybored5526 It should also be noted that out of these bombsites were built the affordable new homes that the boomers were then able to buy.Plus the increase in employment etc. living standards rose, along with wages, life expectancy but hey let's just go on about a coffee machine shall we?

[@sarries1]

@totallybored5526 I would also add that if boomers were beaten at home and school so much why would most state ' a smack never hurt me' and advocate it so much?

[@Dawnie65]

Eugen Z don’t have the foggy idea about boomers you do know those boomers and your grandparents shame on you

[@sarries1]

Sorry but I have no idea what you wrote as it does not make sense.​@@Dawnie65

[@brandythedog4764]

Yes- next question

[@user-jz5bj8gz2h]

Yes they are too spoilt.

[@jameslyon2338]

Carole is the reason the younger generations would happily throw boomers under a bus, the millennial and gen z life experience is working for no long term rewards. the promise used to be you get a job, you find a partner, you buy a house, start a family. now they cant do that, they cant save money because rents are insane, they can't buy houses because they're 12x the average salary now, so faced with bleak prospects they want a coffee machine because in the long run its cheaper than buying chain coffee every day and of course even Carole has a problem with that. honestly, there's more empathy in plants than that woman.

[@dominiclawson5362]

boomers are more entitled/spoilt than gen Z

[@Dawnie65]

How do you work that out? Have you got grandparents? Are you saying that your grandparents are entitled and spoilt? I can only assume that that comment that you’ve just made you are a gen z and that just tells you what sort of person you are entitled brat

[@vikingfrog7204]

I'm 36 and I can't live without a coffee machine.

[@BLUESKY-zt1nv]

Hey Carole Malone we are ALL Spoilt YOU included ........Gen Z ...? Dont forget we all have ancestors who lived in Caves .

[@SamhuinnSam]

Go back to 1769, no electric, theY would say people in 1869 were spoilered. Stop making things and business then everyone.

[@Stuart-f2m]

Gen Z = Gen Me me me

[@Dawnie65]

Yes. They will not be able to hold down a job because they won’t be able to cope with having somebody tell them what to do within that job. They’ll probably not be able to drive because they won’t be able to cope with somebody telling them how to drive, basically they are ruined and that is the country’s futureand it is a very very big worry

[@Westerhousen]

Wetter than an otters pocket

[@vikingfrog7204]

Bet Stephen is fun at parties ! Sounds as dull as a dark night

[@Henryagincourt]

Gen Z. Spoilt,selfish,me,me,narcatistic,lazy,social media obsessed,me me, no work ethic or stamina. Nieve and in practical mentality. God help us when Gen alpha come about

[@mathsfreak69]

At least they can string a sentence together

[@user-jz5bj8gz2h]

I think Boomers and Gen Z are the worst tbh. Silent, Gen X and from what I think Gen Alpha are going to be are the best. (I'm a millennial btw).

[@totallybored5526]

Gen x are the ones currently in charge, are the “new” parents. How are things going?
