Nottingham Council is absolutely outraged!
There's been a report published which, city by city, shows crimes, per capita, and Nottingham tops the list..
London comes in at a lowly 21st, and according to the numbers, Southend is the safest place on the Island to live..
Now it must be said, that this report can be taken with a somewhat wry smile, for while it is factual, it does not take specifics into account, and is, in effect, exactly the type of report the government itself would produce. This is perhaps one reporters attempt to follow the Parliamentary lead..
You can do or say almost anything with statistics..
It's all dependent on which numbers you use..
