Badenoch attacks Labour as PM defends jobs record

Kemi Badenoch accused Sir Keir Starmer of failing on the economy, claiming unemployment had “surged” since Labour took office.

The PM hit back at PMQs, saying 500,000 more people are in work and highlighting jobs from defence, energy and housing projects.

Starmer said Labour is investing in Britain’s future, while the Tories “talk Britain down”.
