Tell that to the passengers on the soux city crash or the passengers on the quantas a380 who owe their lives to the crew, not a computer.

I don't remember the computer doing so well on air France 447 either.

AF447 seems the pilot left in charge failed in the basic dynamics of flight,not the computer.

what the heck is a "non UK national"?

how many of them are there in the UK?

taking a [bold] assumption that they are all of working age, then:

(a) if there are 5m of these people, 400k unemployed equates to an unemployment rate of, I suppose, 8%, i.e. even higher than the UK average [of about 7.5%].

(b) if there are 10m of them then we're talking 4%, i.e. much lower than the UK average.

And that could sum up our conversation. You can always present your information in a way you would like others to see it. It is like "give me the numbers and I will prove you are wrong"
