Thatcher: the tiresome truth

John McDonnell, who is standing for the leadership of the Labour Party, and has already garnered the support of 10 MPs, has said that if he returned to the 1980s he would assassinate Margaret Thatcher.

Nick Clegg, Deputy Prime Minister, has said that there will be no Margaret Thatcher style cuts under this coalition.

I rather think both of these characters have returned to the 1980s. As I pointed out here, there were, regrettably for these two, no cuts. None. Spending went up year after year after year. It always has done.

It won't now, Mr Clegg, and it wouldn't have done either, Mr McDonell, if Labour had got in. The money, to quote another leftie idiot, has all gone.
