FT Alphaville has noted a lack of coverage on Eurostat compared to the Office for National Statistics, particularly regarding the UK’s Labour Force Survey (LFS), which faced critical response rate drops, rendering it unreliable. Although Eurostat’s quality report on the EU LFS from 2020 highlighted some issues, updates have not been provided since March 2022, and future reports for 2023 and 2024 remain unspecified. Consequently, Alphaville has decided to refrain from further coverage of Eurostat due to these transparency concerns and ongoing uncertainty.
