Most of what the government do to us and our country I find degrading and ridiculous, so this is nothing new, I am amazed the morons have nothing better to do than come up with more constructive ways of spending our money than paying for some prat in an office to think up totally useless reforms.
Worse thing Guy Forkes ever did was get caught. :) Now I expect Mi5 will knock at my door to arrest me on terrorism charges. :)

To get a government grant for a business you go along to the appropriate department and present them with a business plan that takes yourself and others out of the benefit system, create exports or increase the national wealth. Wearing a hat with 'Creative Industry' won't cut it.

Better conspiracy theory than mine. I think I will adopt yours.

Isn't the pratt in the office suggesting that they stop wasting money trying to produce statistics for something that is insignificant?

Probably but the fact that they have an office at all for this sort of stuff is a massive waste of resources in itself, still they need something to do to keep them from real progress.

Hi Bill, They could even be checking on who's who on the forums and if or what you do & sell, why few may not post, less known the better.. Like I'd been told a few years ago about checks on Small Ads and cards in Shop Windows .. the likes of Odd Jobs done & Man with Van ..
Mark, that wasting of OUR money, I'm never asked, but it's the likes of you & me who could answer their statistics .. just who do they ever ask !!!!.. Then Volunteers take these polls don't they.. so what's the costs.
They talk of cuts/closures of Departments at Stafford and Cannock Hospitals .. News paper reads £3+million spent on finding statistics etc .. to save what 1.5 million !!!! losses ...
We both could end up in the Mi5 Turners Club .. ;D .. got a go Knock at door...

Are you suggesting that there is no need for national statistics?
Would it be better for politicians, for whom incidentally I have no more regard than you, to make decisions that affect us all without having any facts on which to base them? Surely they make enough of a mess when they have the information.
Apologies if I have mistaken your meaning.
