We have to finish the job according to Cameron.
I'd quite like for them to do that. Problem is I wonder how interest rates repricing to their natural levels, and flagging economic performance in China and the US (its own recovery is no less driven by QE-financed debt and, up to now, shale gas/oil) are going to allow for that. Not to mention the £5bn or so to come from unspecified "tax avoidance". I guess it's not as bad as Labour's £7.5bn or the LDs' £12bn, but it's still a highly tenuous figure and they know it. Although I am not fond of any of them, I think the Tories are likely to do a better job than the other two, come what may.
