The review is also expected to address the rising influence of social media on the mental health of young adults, with Milburn asserting that their brains have been "rewired" by smartphones. "The system is trapping people in worklessness rather than enabling them into work,” Milburn told the Times. "We're at a risk of just writing a whole generation off. "This is a bedroom generation.
