    That may or maybe not be correct as there are many doubts about the impartiality of the fullfact organisation.

    That apart, if you have a burst water pipe at home the first thing you do is turn off the supply stop tap.

    OK, have it your way. Link me to reliable independent sources that say otherwise and I'll look at it. Just want honesty and openness about it is all, so we can make informed decisions about our society.

    The Tories could solve it easily enough if they had the will. Unfortunately they dont give a stuff - and leave it to their supporters to blame it refugees and foreign aid.

    Last time we saw this growth in the homeless was in the 80s under Thatcher.

    It's no good presenting Grist with facts, they only confuse him.

    Indeed saw, i use fullfact often, and on occasion have changed my view on certain subjects because of it.
