Vote Labour..............

That should get the heckles going! This is not 1973. It's not 1985. It's not 2008. This is 2019 where a succesion of Tory led govts have managed, over the previous 10 years, to increase the National Debt by approx 12%. During those 10 years, the Tories have "carefully invested in the future of this country" by implementing something called austerity, where everyone has to pay through the nose for excessive and reckless Tory borrowing.
But that expression isn't used in the Tory media. Not with reference to the Tories, anyway. Nope. It's Labour that would go for excessive and reckless borrowing. The Tories do as well, but it's how you say it and organise an assassination of the opposition to hide your own deficencies. The Tories will borrow to high heaven to fund their "investment in the UK". Their record over the previous 10 years proves it. They can't be trusted with the economy because they will increase the national debt. And all this could happen with a potential PM who is a proven liar and a proven racist who, when challenged in the Commons earlier this year, refused to apologise for his lies and racism. He has apparently apologised quite recently, but he has only done so because his constant refusal would potentially cost votes. Not because he's sorry or remorseful. The Tories will bankrupt this country with their borrowing. Vote Labour and give the country back to the people, not the private contractors, who are probably all members of the Tory party.

General government gross debt was £1,821.3 billion at the end of the financial year ending March 2019, equivalent to 85.2% of gross domestic product (GDP) and 25.2 percentage points above the reference value of 60% set out in the Protocol on the Excessive Deficit Procedure.
General government gross debt first exceeded the 60% Maastricht reference value at the end of the financial year ending March 2010, when it was 69.6% of GDP.
General government deficit (or net borrowing) was £25.5 billion in the financial year ending March 2019, equivalent to 1.2% of GDP and 1.8 percentage points below the reference value of 3.0% set out in the Protocol on the Excessive Deficit Procedure.
This is the third consecutive financial year in which general government deficit has been below the 3.0% Maastricht reference value.

The debt from 2010 was in many ways a legacy hangover from the Blain/Brown years - remember the Treasury comments when Labour left power.....
But then look at the national deficit and how this has abated.....

All irrelevant. We are talking about the next 5 year (maybe) parliament only, and there is just one potential government that wishes to support democracy and move forward our collective decision. If other issues are on folk's mind then the parties should have considered that before denying the people and thus making themselves unelectable to any reasonable citizen. Other issues may need to be delayed 5 years now, although there's no reason to believe the next government won't tackle them anyway.
