| I didn't say they were wrong. Within the parameters defined by the government they are correct, it's just that the parameters themselves cause a misleading impression to be drawn. For example, the "highest ever employment figures" headline, doesn't include the fact that two thirds of the four million children now living in poverty are in working families and that 19 Million workers are now on the verge of poverty.
