They are doing it because they are not only the spiritual heirs of Bliar/Brown, but also proud of it!
You can't expect Labour to oppose Tories increasing taxes.

George Osborne warns of further cuts as 'storm clouds' gather
Originally posted by BrilloPad View PostBut it had a hole in the roof. He could have fixed it in 2010 and blamed labour. Instead he just carried on. Encouraging people to borrow all they could. Spend their pension funds. Help to buy.
