"Sounding very much like someone who has never had to work there, or at the very least never had to start at the bottom."

Work where? During my degree I had 3 jobs and one of them I didnt get paid (I wanted experience for when I graduated).

"It doesn't take a genius to see that the "gig economy" traps people in low-paid, unskilled work with no means to fund the training to get a better job"

Or to tide over short periods, or extra cash, etc.

" It's all very well to say we should be training more British people to do those jobs, but without recognising that this takes time and money, it's just glibness."

Not sure where your tangent is going. He says he has a graduate nephew who seems willing to apply for work but on zero hours at the moment. While he took my comment harshly I was asking genuine questions.
