Ester McVey writes on the largest fall in unemployment since records began

Every Labour government in history has increased unemployment.

Almost every government in which the Conservatives have taken part - including the present government - has reduced unemployment.

Yesterday's figures showed a big fall in unemployment, and Employment minister Esther McVey writes ...





"The biggest annual fall in unemployment since records began - and a record number of people now in work.

Yesterday's jobs figures show more and more people with the security of a good job and a regular pay packet.

Ed Miliband predicted our plan would lead to the loss of a million jobs - and now can't understand why unemployment is falling.

Well, it's simple. The Conservatives are backing small businesses and enterprise with lower jobs taxes and better infrastructure, while reforming welfare so work always pays.

And across the country, business owners are working hard to build something of their own and create jobs for others.

Our long-term economic plan is building a stronger, healthier economy - and everyone needs to know this week's important news. Please share this graphic on Facebook and Twitter:

But there is still more to do - and there are risks in the global economy which could threaten Britain. So it is vital we carry on working through the plan which is creating jobs and securing a better future for Britain.

Thanks,

Esther McVey
Minister of State for Employment"
