How and why are internships even legal? Access to things like politics and the media is now restricted to those who can work for little or no pay after university, and often during the university vacations as well.
Britain has now descended into self-parody, in which everyone who is anyone has known each other since they were 19 at the oldest, and routinely a great deal younger than that. Any figure or movement that emerges from outside the Golden Circle is completely ignored, and thus killed off.
Even David Miliband or George Osborne can expect to be treated as a serious figure, something completely unimaginable when there was proper competition.
