@WasOnceLoved It's hard to improve things as you're forced to cut public spending when you've inherited the horrendous deficit they did. Much easier to spaff money up the wall like labour pre 2010 that led to the problem.



Rachel Reeves has trashed our economy. Britain's inflation is the highest in the G7 - and that's before the Middle East crisis is taken into account. Growth flat. Record borrowing. Crippling taxes. Only @Conservatives have a plan to get Britain working again.



@WasOnceLoved @KernowQ "what are you blaming the Tories’ much larger av deficit on" The deficit they inherited, as your graph shows.











@WasOnceLoved @KernowQ If you're blaming the massive deficit on the GFC (though it also followed Labour's massive spending increases) you can hardly blame the Tories for increasing the country's debt, which was the false grievance in the original post. The Tories campaigned against Brexit. 👍
