How many of the statistics that Labour and the Conservative Parties are using have been fiddled with........?
We know that certain categories of the unemployed have been taken out of the monthly figures........and if we are talking about interest rates.......I think I would rather pay 10% interest on a £70,000 house than 5% on a £200,000 house.
And as for crime.......Charles Clarke tells us that violent crime is up because of the way it is recorded.........well, I for one don't believe him.
