Re: New Labour just can't stop spinning...
Gordon says " Ooops!"
Quote:
Prime Minister Gordon Brown has been forced to admit he misused immigration figures after being criticised by the statistics watchdog.
In a podcast on Friday, Mr Brown said net migration into the UK fell from 237,000 in 2007 to 163,000 in 2008 and provisionally 147,000 in 2009.
But the head of UK Statistics Authority agreed with a Tory complaint that he had made inaccurate comparisons.
Downing Street said it accepted the statistics had been "unclear".
