All i would say about this scheme is this if any company has a vacancy then let that company pay the going rate for the job,ie the rate they pay everybody else lets not dress this up as work expierience when in reality its cheap labour by any other name.

At least sainsburys and other companies that have pulled out recognise that simple fact.
