Yes - very important. And see earlier post on this page with the precursor to this article - journalist probing really hard to get Cameron's spokesperson to admit the misleading .... painful to read ... but even more infuriating.
I picked this up at the time of the Autumn Statement - forget absolute cash and express it as % GDP because it sounds better. And if you "forget" to mention the % GDP bit, well, these things happen...
If I'm not here, then I'll be in the library. Or the other library.

Cameron's still forgetting to mention productivity falling so badly.
Something horrible gone on there. 11 dogs in one go ... that's not a natural occurrence, surely.
At least they are all ok. They probably got the scent of something and all tried to hurtle down the same narrow cliff path. Hounds lose sense on a scent and lose more sense when they've sighted summat. Huntsman'll be in a fair bit of trouble, likely...
This time, I'm gonna be stronger I'm not giving in...

Chris Leslie just took on David Gauke on the deficit on Newsnight, and won. If I were the Tories, I'd be nervous about this 1930 line.
I read that Newsnight interview the same way as D Hodges. Obviously nearly time for bed ... but Chris Leslie was sound.
And snap with @RR2 on the UKIP/EU-funding business!
I have been reading really slowly again, in between dealing with 'stuff', and when I heard what Helmer said I leapt to the keyboard and posted. Making out UKIP are some kind of 21st century Robin Hood 'liberating our money' but not for 'the public good' - unless you think the public good constitutes its being spent on their UK General Election campaign and candidates. Cannot wait to hear who they employ to work in their brand new think tank. Reckon they'll try to poach people from CSJ and Migration Watch?
Any road, I shall hope your dreams are sweet and that you all wake refreshed.
