tell them that there's jobs out there. forget that not so long ago there wasn't, because now there's jobs galore for everyone.
Because it's a tough message to be told you're getting less money so delivering it in a job centre would not result in good pictures for the news. Osborne has chosen a sympathetic audience, and why shouldn't he? Speeches, walkabouts and hand-shaking are political events.

I observe that you seem angry. You say you're not. It's just another aspect of the discussion.
