How many jobs do you have?

15 June 2015

Many people still find times tough, and a recent report showed 150,000 Londoners (up from 94,000 in 2005) now say they have to hold down two or more jobs to make ends meet. We wanted to see if this situation is replicated across the country. Please choose the option closest to your situation. (If you do freelance/contract work, count it as one job).

We try to use technology to limit voting to one per person. Occasionally, this may erroneously block a few people's votes (eg, from shared offices). Apologies for that.
