MP: Unemployment a great social evil
The latest ONS figures shows that employment is at a record level, with four million in work since 2010. The number of people out of work remains near record lows of 3.8%, and the rate of people in work is the highest since the start of the pandemic.
John said,
“It is excellent news that employment remains so strong, which is a key metric of a successful economy – unemployment is a great social evil.”
“It is always worth remembering that no Labour Government has ever left office with unemployment lower than when they came to power.”
