Young people in Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock are paying the price for this government’s economic failure as long term youth unemployment in our area continues to sky rocket.
Commenting on this week’s unemployment figures, Sandra Osborne MP said:
"The latest unemployment figures offer no let up for young people in my constituency who are still paying the price for this Government’s economic failure.
“For every Jobcentre vacancy in this area there are 18.7 registered claimants.
“Long term youth unemployment here in Ayr, Carrick and Cumnock is up 313% in the last year, but Ministers still refuse to take decisive action.
“This Government has got to wake up to this crisis. They must take action now and they should start with Labour’s Real Jobs Guarantee and get our young people back to work."
