Looks like the Laddie has caught Boris's Lying disease
The chancellor's use of statistics has been questioned after he said the number of homeless people peaked in 2008, under the last Labour government.
The UK Statistics Authority received complaints after Sajid Javid made the claim on Sky News and BBC Radio 5 Live on 5 December.
Mr Javid also said that since then the number has decreased by almost half.
The Conservative Party has since said that the chancellor misremembered the statistics.
The UK Statistics Authority, an independent body, says figures from the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government show that "statutory homelessness in England peaked in 2003 before falling to a low of around 42,000 households in 2009.
"Between 2009 and 2017, statutory homelessness then increased from this low point to around 58,000 households."
Oh Hud oan he was not lying he just misremembered ......aye right
