Labour poised for fresh welfare changes after scale of youth jobs crisis revealed
A landmark report from former Labour cabinet minister Alan Milburn finds that youth unemployment costs the UK £125 billion annually, with the number of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET) surpassing 1 million for the first time in over a decade. The ruling UK Labour government under Prime Minister Keir Starmer is preparing to implement fresh welfare system overhauls to address the crisis, alongside existing supports such as the youth guarantee program, amid criticism that its prior policies including tax increases have contributed to high youth joblessness.
