This is odd, given the massive advantages that accrue to UK business via a comparatively cheap pool of skilled graduate labour. If you figure in the fact that between 2010 and 2023, cooperate investment in workplace learning and skills plummeted by 26%, it becomes clear that there is at least one beneficiary which is not pulling its weight. The possibility that a business graduate levy might prove ideologically unpalatable should not preclude its mention amongst a range of plausible remedies.
