The last government made it much harder for the Ozzies, Kiwis and Saffas to go over to Britain. Those that have a British grandparent can still get ancestry visas, but the days of the others going over and spending a couple of years working in bars or driving vans to fund an extended trip to Europe are over.
Just as well, they are exactly the sort of people that the British want to keep out, aren't they?

I don't follow your point about figures not being seasonally adjusted which, as I understand it, is a means of removing seasonal fluctuations so a long term trend can be seen. Is that relevant to comparisons of two figures which presumably follow the same fluctuations? Or perhaps you understand the statistics better than I do. Please explain.
The margin of error of 205,000 is relevant to the total of 29m or 0.5% as the next line says. This will represent cumulative errors in calculating that total. That does not necessarily mean that random fluctuations are of that order and that it is statistically correct to dismiss the change. Rather depends how the figures are done and I can't see anything about that. Maybe someone who has done stats more recently than 1965 can comment.
PS Would they really release figures that were statistically a pile of W*NK?Last edited by xoggoth; 20 January 2011, 21:32.

If someone wants to use that data source for something interesting, it is possible to extrapolate how much is being paid by the public sector into the finance industry, and how much per head and how much is being paid in bonuses, per head, to people in the finance industry by the taxpayer. I didn't because of my hypertension.

Fair enough to examine whether those facts actually hold up obviously, not so to simply dismiss because they are reported by the Express/Mail or what/whoever the commenter does not approve of. Principle number 5c ii) in the xoggoth simple model of human kind: You can present as much truths as you like, with some they will never get through the filter of preconception.

I'm surprised you need the heating on at all.
Still, as they say, "Keep your pecker up".
