The BBC reported this week that unemployment in the UK rose by 118,000 in the three months running up until November, bringing the total unemployment figure to 2.69 million, according to official figures.
The government surely have to do something about this, I'm one of the unemployed and desperately job-searching, but the government need to help to create jobs.
The Olympics are coming to London this year and they've provided some jobs, even if they are short term, but I keep coming across vacancies that are unpaid. It's ridiculous, surely the Olympics should benefit those of us who live in London and the UK, it should be for more than just those who can run or are good with a bow and arrow, it should benefit all of us. It absolutely should not be another unpaid work experience opportunity, companies are already making the most of those!
