IDS writes on the latest employment figures

This month we saw the biggest annual fall in unemployment in 25 years - and the biggest annual fall in youth unemployment since records began.

Being able to find a job is the most important way to improve people's standard of living. Our long-term economic plan is helping to create more real jobs and giving more people the security of a pay packet to provide for themselves and their families.

To get this important news out there - please share this graphic on Facebook and Twitter today:

1.8 million more people in work

Labour's Great Recession led to the biggest economic crash in living memory. People lost their jobs, and families were hit hard. We're fixing the mess they left behind.

By backing Britain's businesses - cutting the jobs tax, cutting red tape, and investing in vital infrastructure like roads, rail and broadband - we've helped create 1.8 million more jobs.

And Labour still haven't learnt their lesson. They're planning to increase the jobs tax - hitting small and medium-sized businesses and putting jobs at risk.

Share our graphic on Facebook and Twitter today, and let everyone know that while Labour costs jobs, the Conservatives create them.

Thanks,


Iain Duncan Smith
Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

Nick Herbert on his visit to flood hit areas of Cumbria

Please note that the post below was published more than ten year ago on 21st November 2009 Nick Herbert MP, shadow cabinet member for the Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs, was in Cumbria this morning to see the areas affected by the flooding. He writes on Conservative Home about his visit. Here is an extract. I’ve been in Cumbria today to see the areas affected by the floods. I arrived early in Keswick where I met officials from the Environment Agency. Although the river levels had fallen considerably and homes were no longer flooded, the damage to homes had been done. And the water which had got into houses wasn’t just from the river – it was foul water which had risen from the drains. I talked to fire crews who were pumping flood water back into the river, and discovered that they were from Tyne & Wear and Lancashire. They had been called in at an hours’ notice and had been working on the scene ever since, staying at a local hotel. You cannot fail to be impressed by the

Quotes of the day 19th August 2020

"Wise men profit more from fools than fools from wise men; for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools, but fools do not imitate the successes of the wise."  ( Cato the Elder , who lived 234 BC - 149 BC, quoted in "Lives" by Plutarch.) There is a similar saying by Germany's Iron Chancellor, Otto von Bismarck: Benjamin Franklin is supposed to have put the same saying in a more humorous form: "Wise men profit by the mistakes of others, while fools will not learn even from their own blunders." See also this thread on the "Quote Investigator" website . Let us all be wise and learn from the events of the last few days.

Quote of the day 24th July 2020

I was moved to put the passage below forward as a quote today when I saw a horrible post on twitter from someone writing that it was "excellent" that someone who took a different view from her about Brexit had died. I won't write which way round it was so that all the Remain supporters can assume the post was from a Brexit fanatic welcoming the death of a remainer and all the Leavers can assume it was a Remainiac welcoming one less Brexiteer. There's been plenty of nasty stuff on both sides but if you catch anyone of your own viewpoint  posting something like that who might listen to you, please do call them out on it - and point out that they're giving everyone on your side of the argument a bad name. Anyway, here's the quote from John Donne.
