LATEST employment figures "hide the real story of the labour market under this government,” Labour said today.

The ONS found that employment increased by 3,000 in the three months to July to 32.4 million, and that average earnings were up by 2.6 per cent in the year to July, compared with the latest consumer prices index rate of inflation of 2.5 per cent.
