Although sometimes I just wish that Ministers and MPs would put away the "How to spin your statements so that its someone elses fault" book and just lay the plain facts on the table - if the situation is out of control then "This" is how "We" are going to fix it, thats all that is needed - to paraphrase from one quote in that article he says in one breath "Under the last government, blah, blah, blah" and then couples that statistic to "such claims have increased 86% in the last five years".
So thats under BOTH of the last two governments then isn't it ?
Stop trying to treat us like idiots and just put the straight facts on the table without trying to deflect any blame onto someone else.
