Gordon Brown is under the gun for youth unemployment which has reached 19.8 percent in the UK.
David Cameron today accused Gordon Brown of failing Britain's youth after figures were released showing one in five young people is now out of work.
The pair clashed at Prime Minister's Questions in the Commons with youth unemployment now at an unprecedented level.
Among those aged 16 to 24 the number looking for work, has reached almost 19.8 per cent — almost one million — for the first time.
I wonder why we don't get similar headlines about Key being under fire because 16.8 percent of NZ 15-24 year-olds are unemployed? That's one in six.

Maori youth unemployment ins at 25% - 1 in 4.
Explains a lot, including Hone's speech.
Keep this up for a while and the Maori Republican Army will be reality, not crazy whitey fantasy.

Its because Key hasn't claimed to abolish youth unemployment, wheras Brown did. That's why.
Lindsay - you're not stupid so you know the answer to this.
Gordon Brown is under fire because he has been the Chancellor and then Prime Minister of the UK for the last 12 years.
John Key has been Prime Minister for less than 12 months and no one outside you and Trevor Mallard seem to think he is responsible for the high level of youth unemployment.
