Of course it's far better now. Loads of the poorest on zero hours
contracts at minimum wage. Just what big business ordered.

The term "zero hours contract" is a recent lefty invention.
They've always been there.

The NHS bank system is and always has been a zero hours contract and
the NHS would struggle without it. Supply teachers are frequently on
zero hours too. Once you take these out of the number its a much
smaller number.
Take out also th4 exaggeration caused by the fact that many people have
more than one zero hours contracts but these all get counted in the
figures quoted by the biassed BBC.
