Topic: Numbers spin?

[MATTP]

Have a look at this and then tell me if you think there could be a little bit of spin somewhere in here?

I loved this Para.:
While acknowledging that the benefits were fairly "modest" in size, the researchers said that traffic-cutting schemes could still be considered as potentially health-improving policies.

Now, I'm not the best at maths but I've worked it out to be 2.3hours more life for each person in London. In my view the way they have used the word "modest" could also be linked to saying that buses are linked to a "more than modest" increase in deaths on London roads  '> .

God I hate how the Gov. use numbers to hide the truth!!!
