“We always knew that this was going to be a very tough time for people losing their jobs.

“Clearly there are going to be bumpy months ahead and a long long way to go,” Johnson told reporters when asked about the data.

Data showed the number of people in work in Britain has suffered the biggest drop since 2009.

Also, signs are growing that the coronavirus will take a heavier toll on the labour market as the government winds down its huge job-protection scheme.
