It baffles me why people believe this when there’s enough evidence to show otherwise. On average the Conservatives have spent more each year in office than Labour have. Even if you take out and ignore the 6 year recovery period from 2008 where the Cons had to borrow more, statistics show Labour, on average of years in No 10, have repaid national debt more often and borrowed less than the Conservatives. The Conservatives are known for being high borrowers and low debt re-payers.
