Latest Unemployment figures released for Mid Sussex show another welcome fall. Unemployment down to 0.8% and Youth unemployment down to 1.1%
Labour said our plan to create more jobs wouldn’t work. But today’s employment figures show they were completely and utterly wrong.
There are now two million more private sector jobs than there were in 2010.
And every new job means another person with the security of a pay packet to support themselves and their families.
That’s why our long-term economic plan is so important – because it’s helping secure a better future for hardworking people.
Remember, Ed Miliband said our plan would lead to: ‘The disappearance of a million jobs’ (speech to CBI conference, 25 October 2010).
With predictions like that, why would anyone trust Labour with the economy again?
When they were last in power, they left nearly half-a-million more people out of work.
That’s the difference between Labour and the Conservatives: while they cost Britain jobs, we create them – and build a better future for Britain.
