(SomaliNet) British Prime Minister Gordon Brown has announced a plan worth 11 billion euros to create at least 100,000 new jobs. Unveiling the scheme in an interview with The Daily Mirror, Mr Brown said the money will be spent on education, transport and other infrastructure projects. He said he could not guarantee that unemployment would not rise but promised that his government would do all it could to help those affected.
More than 75,000 people lost their jobs in November in the UK. This is the biggest rise in 17 years and brings the total number of unemployed to over one million. |
