Did you know that every UK government since 1971 has presided over record numbers of employed persons?

Hi yes you are right actually the old conservatives would have cut wages and made all of us work harder for our bosses. some forget these facts even the current labour side is really closet conservatives. just like tony blair was when he first got into office. then the old guard came out of the woodwork with there borrow borrow and borrow till you bankcrupt the country so really we don't need that again. personally the coalition has helped to move things away from party politics which is what needs to happen on both sides.

Of course, the population goes up, more women work, people work for longer etc. Seems quite obvious really, the real nmber to look at are how many are unemployed or under employed

Globalization , feminism and mass immigration have never gone away since then. The idea is to create a population who're controlled by the state.

fluffing up the numbers is an old politicians game
