We have conducted a deep Spitzer IRS survey of the complete 2Jy sample of 46 radio loud-AGN and a sample of 19 3CRR sources, obtaining a 94% and 79% completion rate for the 2Jy and 3CRR samples respectively. The aim of this spectroscopic campaign was to investigate the abundance of young stellar populations using starburst tracing PAH features within the spectra. Our analysis reveals these tracers in only a minority of objects (20%). From the wealth of complementary data available for the 2Jy sample and 3CRR samples we are able to provide a comprehensive analysis of a range of different starburst tracing techniques. The conclusive results provides statistically significant evidence that the majority of radio-loud AGN (0.03
