I'm not sure at all, there's some detailed stats on here, but I've given myself a headache trying to figure out what's what... http://www.nomisweb.co.uk/reports/lmp/la/1946157109/printable.aspx
I know you like a bit of football memorabilia. So, regarding Huddersfield Town with a Hull City connection, the Huddersfield keeper in this was my dad's English teacher in Leeds. please log in to view this image please log in to view this image [/IMG] please log in to view this image Penalty was in last minute of extra time in a Cup Final replay. Reember my dad saying he came in on Friday morning to set things up the left to join his team mates and was back at school Monday morning. Got picked for 3 England squads but never played.Like a lot of others his career was buggered up by the war. He served with the Chindits for three years (must have been quite a bloke). Moved to Blackpool a few years after the war. Then to what was then Northern Rhodesia, where he had 3 kids. One Steve played professional rugby league for Warrington and until recently was their all time record points scorer and is still their record kicker. The other Bob Jr, played rugby union for Bristol and was capped by England. The third, name of Iain followed in his footsteps as a goalkeeper. Bob Hesford must have carried some sporting genes. All of us dads would like to have 3 sons like that. Most of us were happy to see one in the school team. Died, after an eventful live, at the too young age of 66.
I wondered the same and had a look, couldn't work it out either. No matter which stat you use (working age or total population) for either 68% in work and 8% out of work doesn't add up. Don't know if I'm missing something. My curiosity lasted about 3 minutes before I saw it for what it is and filed it away under 'statistics' (i.e. Total bullshit)
Fantastic article and agree it's great for Hull, but as I've said numerous times now, the vast majority is exsisting companies expanding, or linked to siemens. It's absolutely fantastic these places are expanding and spending money in the city and bringing new jobs and all those sights are impressive, the only one I've not been to in person is the one in saltend (not sure it's started yet ) but my point stikl stands....take out exsisting hull companies, stuff that's linked to siemens and there isn't huge amount of new business investment in hull compaired to other major UK cities
Certainly if you take away all the growing companies in the City, there are very few growing companies left. Fair ****s.
24% of the population being scumbags is an abnormally high amount. I guess it's similar across every city in the U.K. as well. And people claim dole dossers aren't a problem.
