Who is your preferred next Tory leader (thus PM), and why? 16:30 - Jul 9 with 9026 viewsunbelievablue

Regardless of your political persuasion. Please show your working.

e.g. I am considering who might be the least threat to a Labour challenge at the next election, as well as "the lesser of all evils" scenario until then, but am as of yet undecided. Whereas you, a staunch Tory, might have a favourite for the opposite reason.

Go.

Yet our current growth from now to last recorded data is higher than the average of the EU

However - What I was getting at was that the tweeter researched an exact time scale in order to "prove" that his theory is correct but

He also used percentage of growth which is plainly dependent on many things including how dire things were in the first place - and the figures increasing by a large percentage doesn't mean things aren't still dire.

If he had picked a different time scale (including the very latest figures) he would have actually "proved" that he is wrong.

Politicians of all colours do this all the time

Personally I think it's all a bit disingenuous.

It may be popular opinion that I am a drunken idiot but this is a forum, not real life, and I'm a bit long in the tooth to be swayed by dodgy data.


Lies, damned lies and statistics. Or in this case, bias.

They're all the same - all colours.

I try to listen to all sides of the argument and not just what I wan't to hear - it's interesting listening to Ferrari and O Brien back to back - also Swarbrick and Darren Adam

Take Boris, he made some crazy decisions, he pretty much hanged himself - but how much is true?

Now, I know that his sister Rachel will undeniably stick up for him but what I heard of her most recent radio show (before I fell asleep) was quite interesting and I'm going to listen to it in full tomorrow.

I don't expect many to bother but hey Josh - have a bash for an hour or so.

What are you wittering on about?

Here’s GDP per capita before that. Our growth has been tailing off even well before 2015.
