And of course Labour weren't "desperate for power" were they, trying to sabotage the coalition with their shameless attempts at a rainbow coalition?

As for huge cuts, that's what happens when you have had a profligate and incompetent government in power for 13 years who have left this country in massive debt. The latest estimate is £2 TRILLION!

Labour would have had to do exactly the same thing to clean up THEIR mess, or are you suggesting they would have carried on amassing more debt by continuing to do what they do best and borrow like there's no tomorrow? Please, less of the BS and get real.
