Lord Young Government Special advisor was forced to resign today after telling the UK population - we have never had it so good and the we were in a "so-called recession".
Unite had this statement out by 9.30am and by mid afternoon Young was gone.
"Claptrap shows government out of touch, says Woodley
Responding to Lord Young's comments (November 18th) that British people have "never had it so good" during this "so-called recession", Unite joint general secretary Tony Woodley said:
"Lord Young has let the mask slip. His Thatcherite claptrap shows that this county has passed into the hands of an out-of-touch, unaccountable elite. But Lord Young has done the people of this county a favour - now we know exactly what this government thinks of them.
"The plain truth is this cabinet of millionaires is out of touch with the rising cost of living, frozen wages and the terror ordinary people have that their jobs will disappear as they're sacrificed to fulfil this government's goal of a low wage, broken state privatised Britain."
