    New figures show unemployment at the lowest level for over 40 years. The jobless rate has not been lower since 1975.

        Stop going on about Zero Hours contracts - I've read the ONS data and it's not as simple as scrapping them!

        It's disgusting that rich old men can peddle this complete bullshit, to the detriment of working classes. Greg should be ashamed.

      Never mind the 'rate' - what about the numbers? 1.5million unemployed - that's not a record to be proud of. In 1979 it was only 1million.
