The hon. Gentleman tempts me and I will come to jobs shortly as there is plenty to tell. He should recognise that employment is at its highest level since records began, and that most jobs created are full time. Also, there is nothing wrong with part-time work.
Andrew Selous (South West Bedfordshire) (Con)

Sajid Javid
The information my hon. Friend provides is true of almost every constituency in the country.
