The Coalition: Is unemployment a priority?

12 May 2010, by Adam Lent Guest in Labour market, Politics

Does this tell us something about the priorities of the new Government?  Since the recession began, the Minister for Employment has been invited to attend Cabinet. Interesting to note, therefore, that the Coalition seems to have no plans to continue this practice according to the list of Cabinet members published today.  Maybe this will change later.  I hope so – we still have a labour market in crisis as Cameron himself pointed out in his press conference with Nick Clegg.
