It's funny, isn't it, wasn't there some bloke who kept saying 'austerity' was just a nasty political choice and in no way a 'necessity'? Just can't seem to remember the name.

Hopefully when all the crap is over and there is an enquiry, the above gets shouted loud, clear and continually. Then every Tory who voted on one of the austerity bills gets put against an imaginary wall.

Indeed. I've very mixed feelings about the government's sudden largesse. It's good they're doing something and being decisive. But it does make previous spending decisions look pretty indefensible. They're spunking cash all over the place now in an effort to save lives. But how many died due to the same party's austerity policy? And why weren't they just as important?
