General Election 2015

Yes, it's a "popular view" because it's actually correct. It's popular among people who look at the facts and understand them. And you're not understanding any of the stuff I'm explaining judging by the questions you're asking.

And even if I do manage to explain it to you it'll only fall off your little shelf in a couple of days anyway.

It's the "popular view" not the correct view. But hey, I won't stop you from carrying water for your boy

Firstly the labour force participation rate has been falling since 2000, so I'm carrying water for Bush and Obama. Secondly it's a simple fact that half the fall of the rate since then is entirely due to the huge number of baby boomers retiring over the 2000-now period. It's a "popular view" among people who can read and understand the facts because it's a fact.

Ok

NUMBERS

Numbers are about as fluid as the policies of political parties. No party is going to use numbers that paint them negatively, and will choose their numbers with care, therefore, while there is often one set of numbers that show one thing, there will be another set of statistics that show the polar opposite. Numbers may not lie, but they can be used to paint very different pictures depending on agenda and political leaning.

The people that quote them are though. And everyone's got a perspective or point of view which they are using numbers to support.

Tentative but noteworthy.

Wow. Just wow. What can you say about something like that? It comes across as pure parody. Maybe thats the appeal. Weird.

[Memphis]

I don't see the issue, Local shops for local people. That's fair enough isn't it?


Royston Vasey already has one road, why would they want more?

If SNP had candidates in England I would give them serious consideration.
