Very sensible. It's realistically not achievable now.

Re: More cuts from failing Osborne
So all George's cuts and misery have been for nothing. He's abandoned his farcical 'must in in surplus by 2020, whatever the consequences promise. Thing is if he'd managed to stimulate some decent growth instead of cutting all the time, we might have be in surplus already. He's an abject failure.
Poor George, not to be leader, even his colleagues detest him. Never mind he's got his 'punishment budget' to deliver, which he will enjoy, Tories love punishment I hear....

Unfortunately we better get used to the tories punishment because Labour will not be a contender to oust them for some time yet.

True, but many of her policies remain (which some say is a good thing and others bad) and others still affect us today eg The Right To Buy scheme.

Have you ever seen the film If....?
Then you'll know why they're called whips.

Re: More cuts from failing Osborne
What has happened to George ?? Is no one grateful for the 6 years of misery he inflicted and massive amount of growth he created ??
Given the sack ? Ungrateful, the lot of you !

Re: More cuts from failing Osborne
He holed his reputation right below the waterline the moment he joined in project fear and the ridiculous £30b emergency revenge budget if we voted for Brexit.
Still I'm sure Dave's crony Companion of Honour award more than makes up for it.
