Friday, July 23, 2010 recession graduates

It's our graduation ceremony on Monday. Tickets £15 a pop, and up to £60 for gown rental. Who are they kidding? We did it for ourselves. A graduation ceremony fitting for the times we live in: the worst year to graduate in the history of the world. 90 graduate applicants per job. 70,000 graduates on the dole. And every day their numbers swell! No point crying about it, eh? Time for mojitos and graduation wear lovingly hand-crafted from recession-appropriate materials. Here's just a small selection of faces you may soon be seeing down the job centre.
