The employment rate is at 76.1 per cent, with 32.81 million people now in workJOE GIDDENS/PA
Wages are rising at their fastest rate in more than a decade and the number of people in work has hit an official high.
Average weekly earnings growth, excluding bonuses, went from 3.6 per cent to 3.9 per cent in the three months to June, compared with the same period last year, the Office for National Statistics said yesterday.
This was the fastest growth rate since June 2008 and higher than the 3.8 per cent figure forecast. The number of people in employment rose by 115,000 to 32.81 million, helped by the fact that the proportion of women aged 16 to 64 who are in work rose to 72.1 per cent, the highest rate recorded.

Well a lot of support for this in France actually as people trust the EU far more than their own countries local finances. The French have a very poor record when it comes to local paperwork ... it needs taking away from them imo

He will return and henceforth will be known as “PIERRE LE FOOL”
The Man who continued to spout crap as the EU sank without a trace as the U.K. survived and escaped in the lifeboats of freedom, Sort of like the band on the Titanic who played on merrily as all around them was chaos.
A type of chap that bets on a horse race whose horse comes last then continually watches the reply over and over again in the vain hope that one day the nag named EU would win and he would be vindicated !!!
