One number a day from Britain’s official statistics.
At half past ten each morning, seven days a week: the most interesting figure published in Britain that day, ranked against its own history, with a link to the file it came from. On a day when nothing notable publishes, the email says so in two lines rather than inventing something.
What you are signing up to
One email a day and nothing else. No second list, no announcements, no product news, no offers. There is nothing to buy.
The editions are written by software and checked by software; nobody signs one off before it is sent. That is set out in full on the methods page, along with what happens when a figure turns out to be wrong. You can read every edition we have sent before deciding.
To leave, reply to any edition or write to joshplawman@gmail.com. Your address is removed the same day and nothing is kept.
