"In the May Budget the Government forecast that 134,000 jobs would be lost in the next 12 months."
It didn't. In the May Budget it forecast growth in the number of jobs of 0.5 per cent.
But it has now. In this week's updated Economic and fiscal Outlook the government forecasts a fall in the number of jobs of 0.25 per cent.
Ms Bishop was "right", early.

You give her too much credit Peter. And you know it.
Julie Bishop has blundered from stupid statement to stupid statement since she became shadow treasurer. The fact that she got lucky and became right (but for the wrong reasons) is not to her credit.
Why do I feel this stat will get a run in Question Time next week?
