    So we'll just keep the status quo where the very rich and huge corporations will just carry on avoiding tax while the poor, sick and disabled are condemned to a slow and painful death to pay for it! <doh>

    No Dave.

    I don't like the Tory party. But both main parties are too extreme.

    Conservatives is austerity and labour is bankrupt.

    Surely there has to be a middle ground.

    You say Labour is bankrupt but the last seven years of Tory Government has tripled the national debt!

    https://fullfact.org/economy/labour-and-conservative-records-national-debt/

    the rise in public sector net debt under Labour once inflation is accounted for is a considerably lower 125%.
    The equivalent figure for the Conservatives up to 2016/17 is 53%. That means that UKIP and other critics of the government are wrong to claim that “the Tories have doubled the national debt”. That would only be true, in cash terms or in real terms, if you started from 2008/09, whereas the first year for which the Conservatives (and their Liberal Democrat coalition partners) can be said to be responsible for the debt is 2010/11.

    You also have to take into account Gordon Brown selling off the gold at the wrong time in an economic cycle and also the increase of structural debt, really since 2001 when they abandoned the Conservative spending plan. After that the debt rose, even in good times until 2008 when all hell broke loose and we have been trying to bail ourselves out ever since
