@gareth0108@BBCBreaking@BBCNews Wonder how that relativism is considered. Still excessively high. -
@AlresfordBear .@BBCBreaking .@BBCNews it is indicative they had to trawl back that far to find a comparator to make the figures seem good -

@wru4me@AlresfordBear@BBCBreaking@BBCNews not needed tbh it just needs to show how bad the '80s were & how inappropriate the comparison -
