I think there's no doubt that unemployment was far higher in the 1980's, than it is now.

It wasn't uncommon to see people being made redundant two or three times during that period.

The unemployment count is also far more accurate now than it was then. The Tories fiddled the unemployment count for years to make it appear lower
