Millions of Brits are out of work and not looking for more.

Official figures show that inactivity is sitting at 9.41 million, or 22.2% of the working age population, which is up 350,000 from 2023.

UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that while some of those people are students and people taking early retirement, there’s still a residue of 4-5 million people who either haven’t gone back to work or haven’t started.

He said that he suspects several things are to blame for this: an influx of foreign-born workers, mental illness and ill health, and a lack of incentive and benefits to being in the workforce.
