Dear O dear, this would be less annoying if I thought you genuinely misunderstood what I said instead of pretending to.
So, for avoidance of further pretence (on your part) YES I think Labour would have had to implement a massive austerity programme in which everyone would have suffered and YES I believe it would have been structured in a less socially unjust way than is currently being imposed under which the rich have been shielded from any real inconvenience at the expense of - who else, the fairies? - the poor.
Goodness me Geoffrey do you seriously think the Tories are a party of social justice, dedicated to fairness and the eradication of poverty? Do you believe "choice" isn't a code word for "our people will be alright" and Cameron's "Big Society" doesn't mean "let's make sure the state is set up in our favour without the tiresome and taxing (literally) need for it to look after the poor"? Of course you don't, you're in on the spin, as you've demonstrated here.
