Mr McGrath, since the start of the Mayor's Economic Recovery Plan, unemployment nationally, we learned this morning, has increased by 0.5%, the largest amount for a dozen years, and now sits at 2 million. In London, unemployment has reduced by 0.1%. Could you let me know what advice you will be giving to the Government so that the rest of the country can benefit from Boris Johnson's jobs?
