Compulsory Jobs Guarantee

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2015. It occurred during Opposition day on Compulsory Jobs Guarantee.

Youth unemployment was affected by the worldwide economic crash. What is worrying—even the hon. Gentleman might, in the privacy of his own reflection, be worried about this—is that, at a time when overall unemployment is coming down, youth unemployment is going up. The rate of youth unemployment is nearly three times the overall rate of unemployment now, and that multiple has been going up progressively since the general election.
