This work examines the official statistics produced about the
current state of British society. It documents some of the ways in
which information has been suppressed, manipulated and
misinterpreted since 1979. It also looks at what can actually be
learnt from avaliable data about poverty, unemployment, crime and
health, and the social divisions of class, gender, ethnicity amd
disability. This guide is designed to help students know what
figures are available, and to discover when and how politicians are
misusing statistics. It provides a detailed analysis of key data
sets such as households below average income, administrative and
survey measures of unemployment and crime, population consensus
data on ethnicity, different sources of data on women and work, the
relationship between class and health, safety at work and new data
sources on disability. The importance of the Labour Force Survey is
reflected in discussions of its different uses.
