A bemoaning:
But they’re not alone in producing hopeless information. Until a couple of years ago the Treasury produced a useful monthly publication called te Treasury Pocketbook. They have now abandoned it. I know not why.
And the Office for Budget Responsibility replacement is not that good.
Is it really beyond the wit of the OS to publish a monthly pocketbook of economic data in an accessible form, with links to accessible explanation? I think that the minimum we should expect from them.
The, err, pocketbook sources are listed – by the government – here.
Sigh.
“Is it really beyond the wit of the OS to publish a monthly pocketbook of economic data in an accessible form, with links to accessible explanation?’
Classic government response: create a second one to meet Murphy’s request.
It’s how the U.S. has 14 different agencies doing the same thing.
