Maybe HMG quite likes the idea of having someone else to blame (i.e. the EU) when things get really tough...
According to Cameron in the Express today we are nearing the end of austerity ,everything is looking rosy ,which is not the impression i got at the last budget

Today, the deficit is down by over two thirds, and we’re on course for a surplus: austerity is coming to an end. But if we left Europe, it would have to carry on. Another £20 billion? Another £40 billion?
So is this statement from today another veiled threat .....stay in Europe of i will force more austerity on you
