Or they could just hire a million extra public sector workers given how superbly it worked during the Labour government.

I'm sure our kids won't mind picking up the bill, failing that I'm sure people won't mind seeing their taxes shoot up even further punishing people yet more for being rude enough to be productive.

Halting all cuts and spending more should only require about a 25% increase on total tax burden.

The areas that Labour threw money at which caused the value the NHS delivers for the money spent on it to actually drop.

Bringing in a nice 3rd party private sector management consultancy with the ability to hire and fire pretty much as they see fit rather than leaving self-serving middle-management cutting front line services to keep their own jobs should work.
