Boris Johnson has been rebuked by the stats watchdog a third time after the Prime Minister made false claims about employment he had already been told were untrue. The UK Statistics Authority warned the PM his claim at a PMQs in February that there were "500,000 more people in paid employment now than there were before the pandemic began" was wrong. While people on payrolls are up since pre-Covid, the number of people in jobs overall was still down by 580,000 compared to December 2019-February 2020. Mr Johnson himself had even admitted the stat was wrong when he accepted a correction after a warning from the watchdog's chairman Sir David Norgrove, who underlined “it is wrong to claim that there are now more people in work than before the pandemic began”. He denied deliberately misleading Parliament, however, insisting he reflected the facts as he knew them at the time. But the PM went on to repeat the claim at another PMQs in April, however, and has now been issued with a … [Read more...] about Boris Johnson issued with THIRD warning from stats watchdog over making false claims

The tantalizing possibilities of the Knicks’ best-case lottery scenario
It’s always dangerous to get conclusive about a draft class before the picks are called, let alone before the players step on the court, but the preliminary consensus among scouts and experts is that 2022 is top heavy. Specifically, there are four players that sit as the cream. So for the Knicks, who enter the draft lottery at No. 11, the drawing of Ping Pong balls Tuesday night in Chicago is consequential. Potentially franchise altering. There is a decent enough chance for them to crack the top-4 (9.4%) to pay attention, and the reaction of the always demonstrative William Wesley, who is sitting for the Knicks on the dais , will be worth a view regardless of the outcome. And if the Knicks’ lottery luck changes and the franchise moves up in the lottery for the first time since 1985, here’s a breakdown of the four prospective rewards (we’re ignoring that the team could also use such a lucrative pick to trade for a star. Ahem, Donovan Mitchell): JABARI SMITH JR. AGE: … [Read more...] about The tantalizing possibilities of the Knicks’ best-case lottery scenario
