UK GDP.

From: Robert Reynolds, West Bank, Batley, West Yorkshire.

IT’S good to know that UK GDP is rising... until you realise the statistics have been manipulated.This has been the growing trend in Western governments for many years. The Americans are masters at it.Here are some questions for you to think about.
Why is inflation so low, yet the cost of living so high?
If real wages have fallen by up to 12 per cent, why have house prices soared by eight per cent?
Why is nobody talking about the massive national debt, that will double under the coalition to £1.4 trillion?
Interest payments alone cost £800 for every man, woman and child annually.
Why has the Chancellor lied to the country, stating that the budget deficit is down to £100bn a month, when in fact it remains stubbornly high at £200bn?
Why cannot any coalition politician explain, that, despite severe austerity measures, government spending is still rising?
And why, if things are truly getting better, are food banks receiving more requests for help from people unable to provide even the basics in life for themselves? YORKS POST.
