UK unemployment rate holds steady

[El Cid]

where did you get that thought from!

 

Sometimes they have headlines like, 'inflation stalls', that would give a less precise headline.

 

""Unemployment is a lagging indicator, but there are worrying signs that it could be poised to rise if you keep an eye on company trading updates such as the one issued by Travis Perkins""

 

From the Independent.

As the article explains, 10,000 is well within the margin of error (which I think is 79,000).

 

Any other headline would also be untruthful.

 

How about - 'Unemployment rate fails to fall.'

How about - 'Unemployment rate fails to fall.'

 

How about "More people signing on but there's more people working too so it's all much of a muchness really - read all about it".

Not very snappy!

 

How about 'Supercaliwerefantasticcelticwereatrocious' or summat like that.

I don't really see what is wrong with the headline they were using...
