Cons Increase Deficit & National Debt Targets Missed

errr.... and the other thousands of voters who make up Labour's solid lead of 8 - 14 points, (PS Ladbrokes Lab 6/4 to win ! ) Obama's borrowing/economising combo worked beautifully in the US - he's going to continue that recovery! Osborne's efforts a miserable damp squib by comparison - the deficit is growing .. also 212 mil is horrendous!

Happy New Year..At least we speak the truth and the whole truth...

Your lot are looking at borrowing at least £212m more than you bugeted for to pay for economic failures ... just for starters...and trying to give us all a miserable future...

At least this morning I have a clear head.

To call anyone that you have never met a Moron is a sure sign of a person that suffers from total ignorance and is not to be trusted or taken seriously, especially in politics.

You could say someone who would not recongise the truth if it bit them on the bottom.

Clear heads? You morons can't even get your numbers right.

Just goes to show what little grasp of the numbers you actually have.

Ps. Bertie check my previous posts before you refer to 'my' lot.

I cannot believe that you would use such an offensive word, it is not going to do your image any good.

If I have put you into the wrong stable I apologise.

Figures can be manipulated to mean anything, this is born out by those and such as those who reach high educational heights, bull... I think it is called.

I think that when people use comments like these it is more a cry for help, because they have reached such a depressed state for whatever reason, so lets just ignore their comments from now on please.

in 1997 Labour inherited a deficit of 3.9% of GDP (not a balanced budget ) and by 2008 it had fallen to 2.1% - a reduction of a near 50% - Impressive! Hence, it's implausible and ludicrous to claim there was overspending.

Running a deficit at all, following over a decade of uninterrupted growth in the economy, was a clear sign of overspending.
Even the most devout Keynesian would tell you that during boom years a government should be running a surplus, not a deficit.

Labour 6/4 to win GE 2015

As you are so confident of that, rather than trying to ramp your favourite party on a little-read economics forum, why not put £50K on at the bookies?

Better still, rather than post anything at all on a little-read economics forum at 11pm on New Year's Eve, make a resolution to get out, make some friends and enjoy yourself in 2013.

Happy new year to all!

Same old story ...all governments are spending every penny and more of tax revenue...theres never an attempt at a surplus..only 6 in 35 years..



Even when the economy is growing we have a deficit....Tory or Labour...



Even in the past in a slowdown the national debt reached 50% of GDP...again under any government...its always going to happen and simply gets worse in a real slump...no politicians are going to change this.

Why are the voters not buying that? Biggest mistake Cam ever made - to underestimate their intelligence! Labour 6/4 to win GE 2015 The deficit promise was a hole Osborne dug for himself!

Well I really hope they do.

It's the only way some of you will realise the magic money tree doesn't exist, and doesn't only blossom when labour are in power.

Seriously, you should stop using serious mental illnesses as terms of abuse.

Hypocrite.
