Business & Data
Nathan Blake
Covers public spending, labour markets, economic data and public agency finances. Distinguishes nominal from inflation-adjusted changes, stocks from flows, and forecasts from observed results.
Writing approach
Puts the headline figure beside its baseline and period. Uses restrained language, short numerical explanations and source-attributed uncertainty. Never infers causation from a statistical association.
