Youth jobs plan ‘the improper reply’, Tories say as Reeves is accused of ‘destroying jobs’

Shadow work and pensions secretary Helen Whately has hit out on the authorities’s flagship plan to get extra younger folks into employment.

Speaking to Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips, she stated: "What we have seen at present introduced by the federal government is funding the very best a part of £1 billion on work placements and authorities created jobs for younger folks. That sounds all very effectively.

"But the very fact is, and that is the absurdity of it’s, simply two weeks in the past, we had a price range from the chancellor, which is anticipated to destroy 200,000 jobs.

"So the problem we have here is a government whose policies are destroying jobs, destroying opportunities for young people, now saying they’re going to spend taxpayers’ money on creating work placements. It’s just simply the wrong answer."
