With the job losses I think Government cuts will cause more jobs, particularly in the private sector because new projects will be cut first. 50% of all employees in the U.K are now employed in the I.T sector or science related jobs. <br /><br />What the big companies, those who have complained about the NI rise, won't do is create jobs or fill vacancies - that's negative job creation not additional unemployment.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15984687997030721919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16962681.post-2774409642188155092010-04-10T19:55:59.914+01:002010-04-10T19:55:59.914+01:00P.S.

They just forget to mention the losses at other end of the scale. <br /><br />That said the rise in NI will probaly cause far more unemployment!Span Owshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10144861546996033462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16962681.post-41003015672079405512010-04-09T11:50:43.037+01:002010-04-09T11:50:43.037+01:00There's a real whiff of hypocrisy about the co...There's a real whiff of hypocrisy about the companies who have sided against the increase in National Insurance. These companies use tax avoidance measures to reduce their Corporation Tax, pay huge bonuses to their chief executives, pension committments and then bleat about increases in NI being responsible for job losses.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15984687997030721919noreply@blogger.com
