Both either spend or cut too much, so regular government changes tend to mean we get about the right amount of spending v cuts.

Ive never quite forgiven Gordon Brown for ruining all our pensions and selling all our gold reserves at their lowest value to fund his spending promises.
Good man!


Yes indeed, where does the money come from?
