Dark impact.


So, it's official, "Economic statistics do not add up ... Scottish ministers are making "stabs in the dark" in trying to boost the economy because official figures do not make sense, according to an economic report. It suggests the new SNP administration may already have achieved its key goal for the next four years. The intention of bringing the growth rate of the Scottish economy up to the British average is based on figures that show Scotland lagging badly."

Tell Mr Smith he didn't really know and wouldn't it be nice to have achieved a target four years before you set it ... over to you Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond MSP MP, who coincidentally happens to be ... an economist.
