Thats a good point Peter. A friend of mine went to Germany to look at how youngsters were trained (back around 1998) came back 'shocked' to see how apprenticeship's were still common place there while the UK was ploughing ahead pushing the NVQ route...the 'shock' was that the apprenticeships worked. For the qualified engineer it was a matter of pride to make sure his youngster(s) finished their training with a high level of skills.
I blame the media studies culture in this country.

This is like the longest German history lesson/thread spread over 3 years ever.
Great stuff

Lets not forget that Germany is at the centre of Europe and Germany is Europe's engine of technology and wealth creation..... if ever the Brexit took hold in Germany... the EU is finished ! .... capput !
