    No attempt to insult you. Purely pointing out your failings.

    If you really fallen for the Tory spin then you need to ask yourself why there is unemployment at all. Admittedly there has been a decline in unemployment but again this has coincided in the rise of JSA sanctions which obscure the real unemployment figures.

    And that is different from an insult how?

    Or the fall in unemployment could be something to do with the rise in employment?

    I'm taking a break from discussions as you cannot distinguish between pointing out a failing and an insult. It seems you're arguing from a point of feeling rather than the full facts. As for the unemployment figures being distorted by JSA sanctions, these are facts are in the public domain.

    You're throwing insults between the irrational proofless non-sequiturs. For example, everything I just quoted.

    In that case you can quantify the effect of the sanctions then.

    I would find it hard to believe that it is responsible for a significant proportion of the decrease.

    Strong opinions about something you clearly know nothing about

    over 30% is certainly not zero to minus

    Clearly a good judge of character.

    Perhaps I need to visit cluelesseconomics4tories.com to understand your point of view.

    I believe the website was endorsed by George Osborne.

    To this day, the FTSE 100 has never exceeded its all time high (6930) at the end of December 1999.
