Is the “jobs miracle” all it seems?

“60 per cent of those job are managerial level jobs, they are not low paid jobs, 75 per cent of are full time jobs, and over 60 per cent are taken by British nationals as opposed to what happened under Labour which is 90 per cent were taken by foreign nationals.” – Iain Duncan Smith, Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

“The reality is we know that many of these jobs are low paid, the number of people paid less than the living wage has gone up by one and a half million in the last few years and there are now 1.8 million zero-hour contract jobs in the economy.” – Rachel Reeves, Shadow Secretary of State for Work and Pensions.
