Michael Tomlinson, Prospective MP for Mid Dorset and North Poole, has welcomed new figures that indicate the number of private sector businesses in the South West has increased by 45,565 in the past three years.
Michael Tomlinson said:
‘These figures are great news for everyone in Mid Dorset and North Poolewho wants to work hard and get on in life. Thanks to the hard work and sacrifices of the British people, the British economy is now turning a corner.
“There is still more to do and that is why in 2014 this Government will slash the jobs tax on all businesses with a new £2,000 Employment Allowance. This will see 450,000 small businesses paying no jobs tax at all. Conservatives are committed to securing a recovery that works for all hardworking people.’
