Q1 So, um - pretty sure that first question, the answer is B. It's the Geneva Convention, innit? Q2 is tricky - what was the working population of the UK in 1978? I reckon the population was about 55 million then, so I think more than half would be working (accounting for children and OAPs and unemployed) and so I'd go for C - 34 million |

But looking again, I think 5C is more likely

#2 - I guess it depends how workforce is defined - the 'best' answer I can find is here. Unfortunately it doesn't match any of the answers researchgate.net |

Does look closer to your and Wriggler's answer of 24 mill though...

#1 response seems to have got lost in the clouds ... yes McG, Geneva. That's what I wanted to answer, no idea why it came out wrong.
