How the anti-gambling lobby has invented statistics to support their case:

This is no great surprise. The anti-alcohol lobby pushes dubious statistics to suit its prejudice as well. It often mentions the “safe” units of alcohol but does not want anyone to know that a former Chief Medical Officer admitted in an interview after he retired that he just made them up off the top of his head. They have no basis in scientific fact at all but have actually been revised downwards since!

Statistics may be likened to a bikini: what they reveal may be interesting, but what they conceal is vital.
