Karl McCartney JP, the Conservatives Candidate for the General Election, has welcomed new figures showing 1551 fewer people in Lincoln claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance compared to 2010 - a 45 per cent drop. This means more people in work, with the security of a good job and a regular pay packet so they can provide for themselves and their families.
People are getting off benefits and into work across the East Midlands, with 135,000 more people in work since the last election. The private sector has created over 2.3 million jobs since the election across the UK.
But all this is at risk if Miliband gets into Downing Street, propped up by the SNP. Because Labour are facing a wipeout in Scotland, he’ll have to rely on the SNP for support. With Nicola Sturgeon calling the shots, we would suffer here in Lincoln. They would hike up borrowing, hit pay packets, and cost us jobs.
That’s why it’s so important to vote for Conservative here on 7 May and secure a brighter future for our area. We just can’t afford to risk it with Labour and the SNP.
Karl McCartney JP, said: "It’s excellent news that 1551 fewer people are relying on Jobseeker’s Allowance in Lincoln – that’s more families here with the stability and security of a regular pay packet.
“This is thanks to the hard work and the determination of people here, and the Conservatives’ strong leadership and clear economic plan.
“But it would all be put at risk with the chaos of a Miliband-SNP stitch-up, hiking borrowing, hurting the economy, and costing jobs – and it’ll be hardworking people in the City of Lincoln who’ll pay. That’s why you have to vote Conservative here to get a brighter, more secure future for our community.”
