The Tories initially promised to have eliminated the deficit by 2015 didn't they? The deficit caused by the GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS. Despite warnings from Labour that their cuts would damage the economy and delay growth.

Now they are saying that the deficit will not be eliminated until 2031! But at least we may have a surplus before I need to start drawing a pension.
More than half of my working life will have been affected by this crisis by the time the Tories have finished fixing it.
