@ -Danielle- I'm one of those people that does a Music degree. However I've picked Music production, which is something that could potentially lead me to a job, well, more likely to lead me to a job than most of my friends, who are doing performance-orientated degrees in the same field. It's a highly competitive line of work, so a lot of it is about who you know and where they can get you, in addition your own skills from what I can tell. I'm not worrying about all that yet, I just need to focus on my work and making it the best I can and keep in contact with the people I already know, if things don't pan out, then I can always do a teaching degree, although people like Gove are making that line of work even more undesirable than it already is.
I don't see the point in voting UKIP, to me they're no better than the Tories, in fact, in some cases they're probably worse, but I can see why people find them alluring because of their stance on the EU and immigration, it's an issue that the other three parties have shied away from, or at the most, given wishy-washy statements. Whilst I agree that immigration should be looked at more closely and taken more seriously (without thinly-veiled racism one side, and accusations of being racist on the other), most immigrants work way below their skillset, and those that don't are a vital part of our services like the NHS. At the end of the day, if I want someone to do a job for me, I would pick someone who can do that job well, their nationality should play no part as long as they're legally allowed to stay. If housing is an issue, then there's enough empty property in Europe to house all of the homeless more than twice over, the remainder can be used for immigrants too. I personally think the main issue is actually our lack of industry and a lack of meaningful jobs that are secure. What industry does the average town really have? Do they provide economic value on a local and/or national level, and if not, why don't they?
