We're just getting the latest figures on unemployment. But it's not just about the number of people out of work, at issue is also how long people are out of work.
It's taking people about 22 weeks on average to find new employment. That's the highest ever on record according to the government. And that figure doesn't even count people who have stopped looking for work.
