Good but could be better

NB: Doesn't fully work with IE8, you need a browser with HTML5, i.e. Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc

Good points
- Very intuitive and user friendly
- Data is sortable

Not so good points
- Only views data at County or Metropolitan Level (giving the option to drill down to individual Borough/District level would be better)
- Needs more data i.e. Expenditure, Income (gov grants, CTAX etc), Number & Type of benefit claimants, recent news story's etc.

Overall, if additional data is added to this app, I will look forward to using it more in the future.
