And for how long are you going to keep blaming Labour for that, Nigel? Another year or two? Decade or two? Century or two? Your lot have been at the helm for seven years, have broken every promise about getting the deficit down, etc., and about ending austerity (do I remember hearing something about 2015...?) You know as well as I do that the downturn from 2008 was completely beyond the control of the government of the time and that exactly the same fate would have befallen whichever government was in power. So cut the crap, Nigel. The last seven years of Tory rule have pitched this country into its worst state since WW2 (alternatively, blame Sir Nick bloody Clegg). We have the worst economy of the G7 and just about the lowest growth in the EU, and let's not even start to talk about productivity. Your Tory government is the biggest shambles for many a long decade and, mark my words, history will see it as such. Gosh, if we hang about for long enough you'll be blaming original sin on Labour as well.
