The lowest unemployment in more than 40 years, you say? And the lowest youth unemployment since records began? But doing what? And being paid how much?
Such are the fruits of taking away people's benefits so that they are no longer counted, of zero hours contracts, of compelling people to need two or three jobs in order to make ends meet and thus to be counted as employed twice or three times, and so on.
We do not need this. We need Modern Monetary Theory.
Through its Jobs Guarantee, Modern Monetary Theory provides a way of preserving the bargaining power of the trade unions, through full employment with the Living Wage, while progressing to the Universal Basic Income.
To insist on that, we need our people to hold the balance of power in the next hung Parliament. I need £10,000 in order to stand for Parliament with any chance of winning.
