Another good write up showing that the Government is misleading the public about the state of public finances and the economy, and also benefit sanctions.

Given the way they stonewall and just repeat their talking points when challenged suggests to me that they're simply lying about a crisis to justify gutting services for tax cut handouts

I worry about how many people believe this.

I do quite like the data driven approach that Bernard and team take. I am a cynic when it comes to the blame game that the politicians play. But this one seems particularly egregious.
