Who knew?

Who knew the aBBC would present such a speculative, lefty report as facts from independent analysts?
Who knew that AB's faux left intelligentsia would believe anything aired on the aBBC and use it as a cudgel to further batter the already reeling but insanely loyal pair of AB Tory supporters.
Let the games begin.

Seems to be a recurring theme amongst the ‘experts’.

From the Guardian link.
/In a stark analysis shared with the Guardian, the non-partisan research group said England’s biggest cities, including Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds, have the lowest productivity and life expectancy in western Europe./
You tell me which way their employees vote Zaccy boy, I’m intrigued to know how you know?

//I just thought you might want to check after making a bit of a tit of yourself with the first link.//
Lol, really? Just because a think tank concurs with what others before them have said? They’re just quibbling over the figures but whatever they are they’re obviously astronomical in comparison to what we’ve been told.
Or do you blindly believe everything the current government tell you?
Actually, don’t answer that, you’ve made it obvious.

As I said, I thought you might like to check because the leader of the organisation in your first link, which you hoped would show the conservatives in a bad light, is a former Labour Party director of policy. Do you think a former Labour Party director of policy might have a bit of an axe to grind?
In addition, the other organisations also have an axe to grind in that, it is in their interest to exaggerate the plight of the causes they are designed to support.
Nice try in denigrating the Conservatives, Fatti, but this one back fired (rather amusingly too).

All similar schemes have failed because there was not sufficient funds to make them into reality.
Remember the laughable ‘Northern Powerhouse’ aimed at closing the north/south divide? It died a slow death starved of money.
As with all these grand schemes, they are just catchy slogans that are meaningless if there is no money to make them work.
And ‘Levelling up’ is exactly the same, political posturing, while the treasury won’t release the dosh.
How many times are you going to fall for the same con ?
