I think we'll have to agree to differ on that one.
The city of London financial sector grew at a rate never before seen (not a bad paying job by anyone's standards) and public sector jobs increased by in excess of 800,000.
Labour also introduced the minimum wage - which is not without it's flaws.
Quite clearly they created several million jobs and took steps to ensure that people were paid at least a minimum rate for doing so.
