More good economic news out from the Office of National Statistics(ONS) confirming the downward path of UK unemployment with a further 58,000 people back in work. The overall figure is now 5.8% of the national workforce, in the quarter to the end of November 2014 but still leaves 1.9 million people not working out of a total workforce of 32,7 million.

Not all good news though as younger job seekers in the 16 - 24 age group category increased by 30,000 and there are now 764,000 of them without jobs.
