It has never been cheaper to borrow. In 1945, a Government came to power in the UK, presiding over a wrecked country and a wrecked economy, with far less money at its disposal. Yet it managed to create the national health service, managed to put industry back onto its feet. It managed to ensure that people’s standard of living began to rise. It dealt with a country that had been destroyed because of the effects of war. If they can do it, then a Labour Government can do it now. We’ve had seven years of austerity and nothing has changed for the better. It’s got worse and worse and worse. Seven wasted years: it’s time for a change.
