Austerity has been prolonged because the Lib Dems wouldn't agree all the measures that the Conservatives wanted to introduce from 2010.
The Conservatives now find themselves in the position of being able to spend money again because the deficit has been reduced to levels that make this possible.

Urrm no, they are making promises to spend on everything and cut taxes because there's an election coming. It doesn't add up and people rightly don't believe it. Not so much a magic money tree, than a magic money forest... Same reason fracking has been 'suspended', Bozza was one of its keenest supporters. Lies, lies and more lies, combined with an habitual liar... It's election time alright !
