IT’S a bit rich of the PM to avoid the young unemployed when he’s creating so many.

Leicester MP Jon Ashworth failed to get an answer in the Commons after he asked Cameron when he last met one of the junior jobless.

So he tried a written Parliamentary question and, predictably, drew a second blank.

So in a triumph of hope over experience, sleuth Ashworth turned his attention to George Osborne. The Chancellor was similarly evasive as Detective Constable Ashworth sought to discover when the Chancellor last visited a Jobcentre.

With youth unemployment nudging a record one million and rising, it’ll get harder for Cameron & Co to run.

Because they can’t hide for ever from the young workless – they are the human cost of the Government’s failed policies.
