No it is not disingenuous at all - far from it.

I wouldn't know a Daily Mail comment from the next. So this assertion is irrelevant.

And what about all the years before that crash?

Totally irrelevant to blame just the 2008 crash - it does not remove any blame from Labour for ruining the economy and causing the next government to introduce austerity that was badly needed to reduce the deficit, we cannot just keep writing blank cheques, like Labour was doing.

Absolutely spot on. The facts are there.

Seen so many assertions and labels for that ridiculous party that is far from "Liberal" and "Democrat". They're "Illiberal Undemocrats." in my eyes especially under the Swindler Swinson.
