PM is right to focus on jobs.

The Prime Minister hosted a jobs summit this week with some of the countries top employers. Supermarkets led the way with Sainsbury's plans to create 20,000 jobs over the next three years, Morrisons plans to create 5,700 jobs, Tesco another 9,000and Asda 15,000 retail based apprenticeships.

I'm pleased to see this coalition being pro-business, pro-growth and most importantly pro-jobs.

These plans, come on top of the 300,000 jobs created in the private sector over the past six months.
