Sticking to the Government’s long term economic plan to build a stronger and more resilient economy is the best way to do this. Under this government there are more people in work than ever before and unemployment fell 538,000 in the past year – the fastest fall since records began.</p><p> </p> question first answered 24/10/2014 12:26:04
