Adding that they had to take these measures also in order to combat anything that may surface from the Eurozone as to problems.

They cannot have it all ways,also if markets and planning don't go the way that is hoped, then they should have had a plan b.
A plan b to ensure that if their policies were going to fail as badly as they clearly have as to the deficit, then those most vulnerable were in fact even more protected, rather than hammering continuously even more by their failing heartless and severe policies.

Do you have a link for the BIB? Of course Labour didn't have to have any strategy for the record breaking debt they left behind. They seem to aim to break their record every time. As usual that was down to the Tories and history carries on repeating itself. As it will when they get back into Government. Put you in power, how would you have handled it? The bedroom tax was a Labour idea which they will keep. In that mountainous debt there was nothing spent on replenishing council housing stock. We did have many more civil servants, which we didn't need of course.
