@@peterah7957 I'm not familiar with the handling of the crisis in the British school system, but if it is anything like the various ways it is managed in the different states here in Germany, all I can say is that it goes completely against human nature and it remains to be seen what the long-term behavioral and psychological effects will be, particularly on the young children.

Fair play brother you're going out there doing your thing working hard it's people like you that make me proud to be British 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧👍

[@garrywilling3711]

Can we get this guy to be a speaker and encourage others to have this drive? He's great!

[@zerog8222]

He is like a cross between Guy Martin and Fred Dibner

[@paulmcdonough1093]

He is

[@burdenonsociety1968]

Yeah I wouldn't give him dynamite and show him what tower I wanted fell though without retreating to a very safe distance first, and by safe distance I mean out of the country

[@andrewcarey2008]

Spot on

[@craigrogerfranklin5795]

Just what I was thinking as watching. What a lad :)

[@stephen-truthseeker]

Whos Guy Martain?

[@yukiwyngaard2202]

Looooove this guy. Glass half full kind of man. Good person with an amazing bit of commonsense. From South Africa.

[@katejones969]

What a refreshing young man. I love his perspective on life

[@neilbroadhurst2098]

One of life’s rich characters, I would rather work with him, than a snob, who looks down at all, good one fella🤙

[@Bigtinycrawler]

Most of the people under 35 in UK could learn a thing from this lad. Good on him

[@mrbadger9920]

A lot of the under 35’s are good, honest, hard workers. Some are lazy gits. But that is the same as the over 35’s. Stop being a grumpy old curmudgeon. The under 35’s just have a lot more obstacles to overcome. Bosses want more work for their money these days. Housing is a lot more expensive in comparison to annual incomes. Further education is no longer free. (I am well over 35, got my house when it was affordable and I have my feet under the table at work so I am just being objective)

[@burdenonsociety1968]

That's a bit of a broad figure, I honestly see most people in their late twenties onwards in work as hard working, by that age it's settled in what's expected of you, it's mostly the people up to their very early twenties we have problems with at work concerning work ethics, and then not too many,

[@bakedbeans9546]

You sound like a baby boomer. Millenials work longer hours than previous generations.

[@MsMesem]

@@mrbadger9920 Work or work ? I went out and did hard physical work as a young woman and thought this normal but most girls don't want to get sweaty or dirty even for a few months.

[@MsMesem]

@@bakedbeans9546 40 hour weeks of physical work plus odd jobs of same ? All behind desks now.

[@paulflynn2712]

Massive respect for this young man

[@lizziandlewy8803]

Nice guy, hard worker, great sense of humour and kind. This young man deserves respect! 💛

[@coldworld5]

Nothing but respect for this absolute legend. No dole, no housing. Real graft like a real man.

[@KneeoGeeo]

coldworld5 yeah but when he moves into a flat or house hell have to claim benefits because he'll be classed as low earnings.

[@coldworld5]

t5 Heath or he will keep moving forwards in his job and earn more money

Pie in a bap

[@venusstardustkyojin8116]

Amazing!

[@burdenonsociety1968]

Left me speechless that did, speechless I've never thought of something so manly and awesome before, I know put everything in a bap apart from soup

[@Robert-ry9pr]

Teacake.

[@burdenonsociety1968]

@@Robert-ry9pr you mean teacake is a term for a bap/cob ect? In Midlands teacakes are delicious hot cross buns minus the cross and less stodgy, now if I put a steak and kidney on one of those I don't waste time and get dinner and pudding in one😉
