This is factually incorrect. Employment change in the United Kingdom averaged 39.74 Thousand from 1971 until 2022, reaching an all time high of 311.00 Thousand in March of 2014 and a record low of -424.00 Thousand in May of 2020, due to the pandemic.

The total employment rate of the UK in June of 2022 was 75.9%. Where are you pulling this "less than 50%" figure from? Your ass? Because it sure as hell isn't coming from the actual stats.

I never said anything about employment rate.

How many people are employed in the UK? About 30 million. What is the population? About 65 million.

You'll find that less than 50% of the population are employed, exactly like I stated.
