But not because of the Labour govt, but because some very pushy financial types managed to cause a credit-crunch conflagration, and the govt had to pour money in to save the entire economy.

Those pushers of "financial instruments" and subprime mortgage sales have caused far more damage to you and me than young street thugs ever will.

No. The government just does not have the money at this time. They are going to have to make savage cuts in all public services, no matter who the govt is after the next election. The UK is in for around eight extremely tough financial years. Moody may well downgrade the credit rating of Britain as a nation. It's not a fun time.
