The IPPR predicts 50,000 more men and a similar number of women will become unemployed this year as public sector jobs continue to be cut. It estimates more than 40,000 of those hit will be under the age of 25.

“The risk is that high unemployment becomes a permanent feature of the UK economy, as it did in the
1980s”, added Kayte.
“Even within the context of the government’s deficit reduction plan, it is short-sighted not to do more to get people back into jobs”, she noted.
