YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJoin Darren McCaffrey as the UK's unemployment rate has risen to a four-year high, in a surprise deterioration that boosts the case for a Bank of England interest rate cut.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) reported a rise in the jobless rate from 4.6% to 4.7% in the three months to May.
No change had been expected after the 0.1 percentage point rise seen just last month.
