Unemployment at 11 year high

Yeah, Yeah, Have you seen the time, must dash!

Pray, do tell. Which untruth have I stated ? All of my predictions are sadly coming true for the British economy. If you want to look for untruths then perhaps look at Brown ('no return to boom and bust', 'nobody is worse off with the abolition of the 10% tax rate', 'low debt economy', 'we will have our troops back home in 2008' etc etc etc), Blair, Mandelson etc.

Don't worry. Labour will outdo everything that the Tories reached on unemployment levels over the next year. They will still blame Maggie though, because they will never take responsibility for their own flawed policies.

Yes but they had to do it to fix the mess left by the prevous Labour administration 18 years earlier.

The figures will allways be massaged, they have been since the 1980s when people were shifted from unemployment benefit to lower the figures. No Government is stupid enough to change it.

And that is after they've massaged the figures. Wonder what the real number is?
