"It said 707,000 graduates aged 16 to 64 were out of work and claiming one or more benefits in 2024, an increase of more than 200,000 - or 46% - since 2019."
Is it not the fault of companies who will not hire, or require very unfavorable contracts without labor protections? The UK has no shortage of workers, but of jobs that pay a living wage and have labor protections.

They should have studied math.
I don't get it?
707000-464272 is more than 200kHe probably did the calculation that 707 - 200 = 507 and 200/507 = 0.39 which is different from 0.46.
