Kay Oliver: UK Correspondent on the conflict between the Tories and Labour over unemployment plans - Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge

The UK’s Tory party is accusing Labour of stealing their ideas around unemployment resolution.

Labour MP Liz Kendall says that her party intends on generating new jobs and an employment scheme, while her counterpart Helen Whately said that is her party’s idea repackaged.

This comes as youth unemployment is at 14.8%, up 12% from last year.

UK Correspondent Kay Oliver told Ryan Bridge that Kendallsaid the scheme her party is designing intends on getting people off benefits, getting them employed and making it easier to find work.

She says the Tories are complaining that Labour has had 14 years to come up with their own plans and they think it is quite rich for them to steal what they see as their own unique ideas.
