Do you have a link at all? I'm only sceptical because I can find no reference to the supposed quote at all that appears in quotation marks. Every reference I've found thus far is attributed to him but not actually quoted. Aside from that any Hansard or policy briefing I've read on the matter does not give exemption specifics so I'm curious as to when this became "policy" because the age demographic I referenced (18-24) was once the ONS / Government barometer. He (Cameron) appears to now be focused on 18-21 year olds.
EDIT - May have found it, watching now.

I'm sure you can't but the fact is there are tens of thousands of them doing just that.
