Wielding the scalpel put millions out of work or on bogus "incapacity benefit" (Thatcher's way of massaging the unemployment figures down) and destroyed whole communities. No future for millions of young people. Running a country is not just about economics. That's the Tory way. It's about looking after all the people. The Tories are interested only in the rich and in people who vote Tory. 'Twas ever thus.
