Cameron's Jobs Prediction At PMQs May Come Back To Haunt Him

David Cameron's prediction that employment will rise during every year of this parliment is a bold one.

Given the public spending cuts that have already been announced by the coalition and the billions of pounds that will be taken out of the economy in the austerity measures to come, how the PM can suggest that employment will actually grow is unbelievable.  A stable economy relies on both the public and private sectors functioning well, not just the private sector.

There are bound to be many more angry exchanges in Parliament over unemployment in the months to come.
