I must admit he gave me a laugh too.

The more you post about McDonnell, the more I like him. And he isn't wrong here.

Cuts to services save very little money. The cuts in the name of so called austerity are merely the Conservatives' ideological quest for a small public service. The cuts are not necessary, they are a choice.
Taking away Disable Living Allowance in the same week you give the well off a tax break is a political choice rather than a prudent move.

I look forward to your next McDonnell post.

well he's anti British enough to join your fellowship Gromit. thus another acronym is born! GABF!

The laughable Osborne talks about balancing the budget and making it illegal to set a deficit budget. Meanwhile he has borrowed £75billion this year and has missed his spending target yet again.

And the national debt, which was £980bn in 2010 is now over £1.5TRILLION.

The Osborne Chancellorship is a house of cards built on debt, borrowing and even more borrowing.

//Mr McDonnell said under a Labour government borrowing would fund investment in new skills, infrastructure and technology.//

i know that as the party of opposition they don't (yet) have to set out anything detailed, but what on earth would "investment in new skills, infrastructure and technology" actually entail? does that mean the government in waiting actually doing some real good for the country and the majority of those living here? or is it a new way of spinning the tired old labour mantra of "build more schools! build more hospitals!" - a policy, incidentally, in which recent labour governments don't exactly have a unblemished track record....

"The Osborne Chancellorship is a house of cards built on debt, borrowing and even more borrowing. "

so would you like to offer a description of previous labour chancellorsunkships ?

why not just admit when it comes to money/finances in any way or form labour dont have a clue...never have never will

Mushroom,

You do know that PFI was introduced by John Major? Tory Blair just continued the policy. And Osborne continued it after them.

mushroom25

//Tory Blair just continued the policy.//

he wasn't obliged to though. he and gordon brown embraced the policy more comprehensively than major ever did. and most of the damage done by the policy was at their hands.

Gromit

Brown, for all his faults, delivered 4 straight surplus budgets. He balanced the books, which is something Osborne has never managed to do. All the good work was undone when we had to borrow hundreds of billions to save inept banks 'that were too big to fail'.
