Ministers have accused Gordon Brown of going on a spending "bender" and Labour's leadership hopefuls of being "in denial" about the economy.


For I cannot remember when Labour denied there was a debt, let alone pretending there was no budget deficit. This just shows how far the Tories must go to save their face for overstating the debt and downplaying the importance of intervention (and how much the Lib-Dems sold out).

I'm obviously biased on this one, but the claims they make in this article are so severely idiotic that I wouldn't trust them to run a country.

Calling on former Labour officials to reject their pays is extremely foul and populistic. For what reasons should these former Labour executives cut on their pays, but should the current ones not cut their own? For being in office during the wrong period?
