Youth Unemployment Falls In Inverclyde

[jimwatson]

iain MacKenzie has been on facebook and twitter claiming credit for the fall in youth unemployment in the district. Here is the copy of my e-mail to him this afternoon...

Dear Mr. McKenzie,

I am writing to you in connection with the recent fall in youth unemployment figures within Inverclyde. Any fall is most welcome given that unemployment is a total scourge and blights the lives of many young people in this area.

However, I am slightly confused by your twitter and facebook pages. Let me illustrate by posting your tweets: -

Iain McKenzie MP þ@InverclydeMP 4h
New stats show youth unemployment in Inverclyde down 15% reason Labour MP,MSP, Labour Council focused on what matters,jobs not separation.

Iain McKenzie MP þ@InverclydeMP 2h
A 26% drop in youth unemployment in past 6 months is great news for #Inverclyde. www.iainmckenziemp.co.uk/2013/04/17/drop-in-youth-unemployment-is-great-news-for-inverclyde/ …

As you will no doubt observe. there seems to be a clear discrepancy between the two figures. Four hours ago the fall was 15% and two hours later it had risen to 26%. Can you please explain where you lifted the figures from, and how such a discrepancy was allowed to occur? In your first tweet you attributed it to Inverclyde having labour representation at every level - can you substantiate this claim by presenting figures that clearly highlight how, when and where these reductions came about due directly to elected labour members.

I trust that this will not take you too long and I eagerly await your reply. I would also be grateful if you could provide a reply to my earlier e-mails regarding equal marriage.

Yours faithfully

Jim

If we extend the concept and definition of the term "reply" then it could be argued that I received one...

Dear Mr Watson,

I am sure you are competent with figures and relevant dates with reference to such figures,and will indeed work it out.

Just can't let it go though....and I also fully expect this pish to appear in the form of a press release from the MP soon...

Dear Iain,

Thank you for such a prompt reply. However, my ability to count was not the
issue under discussion. Again, can you explain the differences in your
tweets between the 15% figure and the 26% figure. And you also failed to
outline what exactly elected labour members actually did to achieve such a
decrease. I am sure that this valuable information can be shared widely to
ensure other areas can benefit from the local insight as well as highlight
the good work that you claim you are doing.

I await your reply with interest

Yours faithfully

"I am sure you are competent with figures"

He's a snide bastard and needs a good slapping.

Of course we know that despite the fancy Slater's suit and the smart tie, he is every bit as thick as Dunky so don't expect anything in the way of arithmetical accuracy.

"Procurement Specialist" Aye right and I'm Louis Pasteur

Any mention of those 100 jobs in 100 days pish?

It's coming up for 100 weeks and signs of fuck all seem predominant

Perhaps our illustrious MP should change it to 100 lies in 100 days/minutes/hours/ continuously (delete as appropriate)


But watch out Jim, he may set that oth arch liar Maigrit current on you, she'd nip the head affa septic boil

[tiddles]

Curran IS a septic boil!

I had a look at McKenzie's website..................what a load of malicious lies. What a streak of utter useless shit he is. At least St David Cairns was educated and intelligent.

[samfregreenock]

I note that on the "about" section of his web-shite, he forgets to mention that when he worked in IBM, he was highly regarded as a complete fannie
Plus rising to procurement Officer is hardly a claim to fame, unless he was shovelling shite in his earlier role
Which has obviously stood him in great stead as now he's talking shite

[tiddles]

I am reliably informed that he was a clerk who filed stuff....badly.
