Public Figures

Britain’s official statistics

The edition of 25 October 2026

Nothing notable published today.

We would rather send you this than manufacture significance.

Nothing new that we could read arrived this morning. The only dataset in its release window was the temporary accommodation tables, and they are left out again: one of the publisher's revised files is laid out in a way our reader does not recognise, and we do not guess past that. The files we fetched are byte-for-byte the same as yesterday's.

HM Land Registry's August 2026 house price figures were not collected this month. The gov.uk page we follow to the data file stopped linking to it, and yesterday was the last day of the window in which we look for them. A dataset we could not fetch and check is left out entirely rather than read from anywhere else.
