After the Big Lie about the UK fiscal situation (see earlier Slogpost)
the second Biggest Lie we were told by the Conservatives was that the
economy must be in good shape, because jobs were being created. One
wonders what these might have been – downstairs parlour maid, maybe? –
but the one thing we know for sure is that (a) almost all of them are
low-paid and (b) over 77% of successful job seekers said, when asked
last summer, that the job did not have enough hours for them to make
ends meet.
The other takeaway from this data, however, must surely be, “What in
God’s name is it like everywhere else to the North of London if only 25%
of Capital jobs were supplied?”
It’s a fair question. And the Office of National Statistics (ONS) offers some disgraceful answers in its new release out today.
