Assisting Employment Generation Efforts in the United Kingdom

In common with other industrialised countries, the UK has experienced the triple problems of low economic growth, high inflation and high unemployment to a marked extent in recent years. While there has been widespread debate — amongst politicians and economists, as well as businessmen and management consultants — about the reasons for these problems and the policies required to overcome, or at least to alleviate, them, there is little sign that we are getting any closer to a consensus of view as to either the causes of, or cure for, our fundamental economic problems.
