If we had had real austerity over the last 7 years then the national debt would not have doubled to an eye watering £ 1.7 Trillion and rising!!
I'm not sure how you can attribute too much of that to Corbyn - or his party?
The debt has spiralled (yet services like police, schools, NHS etc fallen pro-rata) under a Tory led coalition, followed by that horrid Cameron man and now the wicked witch <yikes>
Glass houses - throwing stones :emoticon-0112-wonde <ok>

Anyone else been affected by today's global cyber attack?
Our systems are completely down, I just hope my salary is paid into my bank tomorrow <grr>

Bah!

Anyone else a gout sufferer? Lying awake with my left foot screaming at the moment, can't figure out whether I would rather;
Everyone got it once just to get a ranking vs bollock shots, giving birth or any other reputedly painful event and to get a mutual understanding of the pain.
Or not wishing it on my worst enemy! Bah!

I've no idea if it's true or not but I read somewhere a long time ago that the acidity that causes gout also prevents you from getting cancer. If it's true then that at least is a positive! <ok>
