ABOUT THIS EPISODE
There’s lies, damn lies and statistics, but what do the numbers from our recent election actually tell us? Have we really had a generational shift, or was the result just a further change in gear along a direction of travel that has been bad news for Ministers in particular but MHKs attempting to regain their seats more generally? Find out what the statisticians make of the figures on this week’s Perspective. Have we been too hasty in describing the result as a damning verdict on the Cannan administration? I suspect not, but in context with previous elections some worrying trends are emerging. Particularly for anyone wanting to be an MHK for more than ten years!
