Benjamin is a disgrace and a sad and worrying example of the younger generation. 40 years ago we respected older people. We had a strong manufacturing base and young and old worked together in factories. I clocked in when I was 16. We were taught to work and work hard. We had limited opportunities. They did not encourage young people from manufacturing towns into University. We saved mo ey and did not like debt. I have never had a credit card. We were taught that we were not entitled to anything. Priority was to work. We were taught to live within our means and be resilient. London was always expensive to buy. Interest 12% on my first home in Leicester. No central heating, double glazing insulation, heating and with damp. I was happy to have my home outside of London. Benjamin does not understand that people like me worked 40 years, our ancestors fought in two world wars for us. I know they worker and died for us and so respect what they did. I worked , will work , be strong adaptable and resilient. Sadly young people like Benjamin exist - with no resilience and no real work ethic. An entitled, disrespectful generation who disregard what older people enabled for them. They have opportunities, but see themselves as victims. They cannot adapt because they are still children. We had to grow up young. It is a sad state of affairs. They have so much but respect nothing of what those before them did for them.

Or you can move out of London and get a £220,000 3 bedroom house up north and you can still earn a decent wage. Things in life dont come easy. You make your own choices if Londons unaffordable the youth should move out. If businesses start seeing that they cant get younger workforce or succession planning becomes a real issue then who knows things might change. Businesses might start to offer help with young peoples housing etc. To draw them back.

Woke kiddies throwing their toys out of the pram.

[@---bf9of]

Butterworth is a complete prat.

[@JanE-yw7kn]

Disgusting comments from Benjamin Butterworth. Why is he given airtime!!

[@pommiebears]

I was raised to respect my elders, and it stood me in good stead. My sons were raised to respect their elders….. and they’re not this guy. I definitely did something right lol.

[@philg7889]

Like all children, Butterball cost his parents hundreds of thousands to bring up to 18 years of age.

[@Buster_Piles]

What a monumental waste. He's a walking advert for abortion.

[@richardallsopp1722]

There are elements of truth on all sides of this argument, there was a housing bubble in the Labour years that made buying impossible for many, we have not got over it, the lad was to young to remember that.

[@AutoAlligator]

Is Mr Butterworth representative of all people in his age group? If that is true then we would do well to educate the next generation because his is clearly lost to stupidity. There is no reasoning with a young man who thinks everyone else should pay for his own ignorance.

[@jamesgreen5137]

Pretty certain he was saying we need to lockdown to protect the elderly and vulnerable not long ago

[@matty_mcmattface]

and mandatory vaccines

[@markharris7662]

I see now why you have Benjamin on. It's for his comedy value.

[@francescarose1453]

Mark. He is being exposed for the ridiculous character he is.

[@noelgallagher8224]

I feel sorry for that shirt that has to wear him.

[@jamescross646]

I want Benjamin to save for a new shirt

[@markrainford1219]

And a haircut.

[@Bungle-UK]

And a religious veil to, er, cover him up

[@lucycook6823]

Well said Carole 👍🏼

[@AndiHesk]

You really need to stop having him on, why do people like him keep getting air time? I know you need discussion but he doesn’t discuss (e preaches with non factual information!

[@DazMellor17]

Little benny boy having another meltdown? There's a shock... 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@URBeingLiedTo]

Butterworth is just another Owen Jones, a know-it-all loudmouth who spends a lot of time saying nothing.

[@francescarose1453]

Stuey. Yes Owen Wilson is another one of these loudmouth idiots.

[@littlecatfeet9064]

Benjamin Butterworm almost had a point about tax rates for graduates but ruined it because of his misogyny and hatred for old people.

[@crumblyduckling403]

Silly boy! Tuition fees would've been a luxury for me. By 16 I was working full time & doing evening classes to get a qualification. Later, renting & having to work evenings too, just to make ends meet. Later, bought a house when interest rates were sky high. Finally, had to wait 6 years longer than anticipated to get my pension. Not complaining, just saying - we didn't have time to masquerade as the opposite sex & invent problems for ourselves like his generation do.

[@Magicbased121]

Frankly I think they're all insufferable in this matter

[@beastieboy3926]

Yep,when interest rates were around 15% I lived for about 12 months on beans on toast and had virtually zero social life.

[@carlseager6340]

No wonder he got mugged what a creep

[@mikewhipps3161]

Dan just gets Butterworth on so as people can laugh at him. He was everything that they said he was in this interview.

[@paulmuaddib3470]

Many cultures value the wisdom in their old they are loved and cared for as respected elders not shoved in care homes because they are not producing capital, ...respect your older generation 🙏🏼

[@Dippy7520]

My god! I bet his parents and grandparents are so proud of him. What an awful nasty person he is 🤮

[@kevinsnowden5992]

Benjamin sort that comb over please.

[@bren333]

The joke is wearing thin now. All I see is the PUNCHline.

[@tsmay4598]

This is the first time I've agreed with the old bag.

[@proudpict2057]

Ben believes his tax money is more important than the tax money we all paid in the past!

[@dawnmainstone6330]

Im 54 never went to uni worked since i was 13 still on minimum wage and im happy, what is that lad going to say when he is 65???

[@chazsach6594]

GB News love this Super Troll.

[@anthonyorafferty5632]

Benjamin 🤣 You can't take him seriously 'he's a great wind-up'.

[@XanderHill101]

Whilst the interest rates were higher average house prices were approximately 4x average working wages, now it’s closer to 10x. It is demonstrably more expensive to buy a house now. The supply hasn’t met the demand, older generations can’t be blamed for that it’s due to policies started under Tony Blair and then not corrected even after 12 years of the current government.

[@mightymeatball8535]

Does butterworth ever question why no working class person agrees with or like him yet the upper class are completely onboard

[@shadow.banned]

This guy knows all this about the UK economy, and yet he's a trans radical nutjob? Like, way to discredit your entire political project.

[@deco2132]

If you are are earning 30,000 in London you must be working part-time.

Ben complaining about education costs he signed up for!

[@admiralbillom7559]

has battyworth ever had anything useful to say? i wonder why dan's "very own" is constantly on his shows.

[@jamesm9534]

When I was 25 buying a house was not even on the event horizon.

[@FranzSanchez-ky9up]

I used to get really angry at ButternutSquash, but now I realize that he's just as much of a provocateur as the edgelords that go after him. He's a pathetic exhibitionist and the world would be a much better place, if people just ignored him (including GBNews).

[@vickyingramnymann8543]

Remember you will all be old one day. Believe me, it comes around VERY quickly. Old people have paid into the system all their lives. They get nothing free. Try living on £7500 state pension and a small workplace pension. It brings in about £12,500. That's just enough to stop you getting any state help. No pension credit and no top up if anything. It's a bleak outlook in the last years of your life. Butterworth is dispicable. Give Give me Butterworth.

[@SithLord1988.]

I hate this guy so much . He must hate his Nan and maybe his mum .

[@proudpict2057]

Ben can give himself a swift uppercut!!

[@davecooper94]

Just watched up to the end. It really dawned on me that the problem with Butterworth and his generation is that, they have grown up being told and conditioned that they can have and do anything they want. At no stage were they told the 'what' and 'how' they could do this in order for them to understand consequences to any actions they take. They just believe it's their given rights. No logical thinking attached to them at all.

[@mrspleasants8529]

I am 60 this year and I worked my butt off for years, and years and years to gather my wealth. I was at poverty level until well into my thirties, working two jobs and paying off student debt. The difference between the under 30's and us old people is that when we were under 30 we knew the way to success was through hard work and sacrifice. Something poor little Butterworth has no clue.

[@yvonnehayton6753]

Mrs Pleasants. You're the same age as me so why were you paying off student debt? Fees were paid and you got a grant on top if you didn't get parental contribution. But then only 8% of school leavers went to university in those days. Nowadays 50% go and the universities are run as businesses and only in it for the money.

[@yvonnehayton6753]

Also I don't consider myself old!

[@mrspleasants8529]

@@yvonnehayton6753 I grew up in the USA and I came from a poor family so no parental help. I paid myself, while I went to school carrying eighteen credits with two kids and worked. I paid off all my student debt about six months before I started paying my kids. Perhaps, we are making it too easy for kids nowadays.

[@yvonnehayton6753]

Mrs Pleasants. Thank you for taking the trouble to reply. I stupidly assumed you were from the UK. I was a university student in Scotland in the 80s. My tuition fees were paid by the UK government and I had a small grant on account of my parents, who had made me go to uni, being wealthy enough to supply a parental contribution, which they didn't but that's another story. You definitely had it a lot tougher than me. Respect, and congratulations on making it xx
