UK unemployment has reached a new high after the public sector made a new wave of cuts this week. Statistics suggest that those particularly hit by the cuts will be youths, as a record high of over 1 million youths were recorded as unemployed at the beginning of this month. This figure is just under half of the total national statistic for unemployment, a reported 2.5 million.Yet, the number of people claiming unemployment benefits has not risen as far as it was expected to. Economists predicted that the number of people claiming support would rise by an estimated 15,000, yet the actual figure demonstrates a rise of less than 4,000. Perhaps things are not as bad as they seem after all.
