Proceeding contribution from Mark Field (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on Social Mobility and the Professions.


Social Mobility and the Professions

It is also perhaps worth stressing that that applies not only to young people leaving school, but to those leaving university. Those who graduated during the recessions of the 1980s and 1990s have found their opportunities severely limited. Sadly, the same may apply to last year's graduates and this year's graduates—although we hope not for too much further forward than that. A recession is a very limiting experience, whenever one leaves full-time education.
