The number of workers on UK payrolls has fallen by nearly 730,000 since the start of the pandemic and the jobless rate has surged to its highest level since 2016.
Jeremy Hunt has said it is "encouraging" that ONS figures show the UK economy has grown by 0.6% between January and March. The chancellor argues that Labour is the party "gaslighting" the public by saying everything is "going wrong with the British economy" and that the latest statistics show Britain's longer term prospects are "significant".

Chief Secretary to the Treasury Laura Trott says the drop in inflation is not an accident but the result of the government's 'hard work' and 'deflationary’ spring Budget.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt says the latest GDP figures that show that 2023’s recession was slightly weaker than originally thought are a “testament to the resilience of the economy”. Figures released by the Office for National Statistic revealed the economy shrunk for two quarters in a row, but the total contraction over that six-month period dropped from 0.5% to 0.4%.

Jonathan Reynolds says he welcomes last month’s drop in inflation but insists people are ‘still worse off after 14 years of Conservative government’. Speaking on the day the Office for National Statistics confirmed inflation fell to 3.4% in February, the shadow business secretary also suggested a cut in interest rates was unlikely, due to ongoing ‘uncertainty, particularly around the Red Sea’.

Work and Pension Secretary Mel Stride said the latest employment statistics are "a step in the right direction." The latest figures from the Office of National Statistics revealed unemployment rose and wage growth slowed in the three months to January. However, Mr Stride pointed out: "We've still got a record level of payroll employment and we're seeing real wages rising for the eighth month in succession. This is really because our plan is working." Report by Kennedyl. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
