Mail: Jobless total 'heading for record 3.5million'
The number of jobless will almost double to 3.5million over the next two years, a leading economist warns today.
That would take unemployment to the highest-ever since official records began in 1971. Today's total of 1.86million is already an 11-year high. The prediction by the consultancy Capital Economics is a sign of the dire problems facing the economy over the next two years.

I tried to read the article , I really did. I just kept getting side tracked by the article to the side on the perfect female bottom.
Far more of a christmas tonic.

I'm fed up with these 'off the cuff' predictions. It may well be true, but is just somebobody's opinion. It's a bit like those who claimed that at the present rate of increase, the average house will cost £2 million by 2015.
A complete waste of time therefore IMHO.

Yeah, p doff, but look on the bright side, the Mail gives you stories like this: "Probe into cosmetic surgeon who 'powered his 4x4 with his patients' excess flab'". It must be the silly season -- opps, I forgot. It's *always* the silly season at the Mail.
