Unemployment Crisis

Swansea has the third highest youth unemployment in the UK and 12.5 per cent of 16-24 year olds are on some form of benefit. The number of 18 to 24-year-olds in Wales claiming jobseeker's allowance for more than a year increased fourfold between August 2011 and August 2012. 

Amongst the panel facing questions from the studio audience is London grime artist Devlin, who is known for incorporating conspiracy theories and politics into his music, Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood and entrepreneur Shazia Awan.  

Also under discussion is online safety and the recent reports of slut-shaming. A film based on the issues raised throughout the programme is included in the show, made by young people alongside BBC Learning's The Lab.
