Is There A Gen Z Jobs Crisis?
Today, we look at why young people are bearing the brunt as unemployment hits its highest rate for nearly five years.
Adam and Alex are joined by BBC business editor Simon Jack to unpack some of the factors driving the trend.
Plus Alex updates us on Nigel Farage appointing Reform UK’s new top team, which he is calling his ‘shadow cabinet’. Alex explains what the appointments might tell us about how Reform is operating.
