National debt in 2010 when they were elected. (after banking crisis it had risen from £330Bn to £800Bn after years of austerity in 2018 it had soared to £1700Bn, and its now at £2500Bn). Monthly interest is around £19Bn every month! Inflation may come down but unless wages have matched them, then you will be poorer, (lets say a shopping basket was £100, then rose to £111 due to inflation, if inflation then falls to 5% the cost still increases to £116.50 so unless your pay has increased by 11% then 5%, you will be poorer). Every day people die just waiting for an Ambulance. Dominic Raab has written to judges telling them to jail less people as prisons are too full. (So that must mean crime has risen). Taxes are now highest they've been since 1945. The economy was the fastest growing in 2021/22 but only because it had fallen the most in 2020, we will have the lowest growth in the G&, lower even than Russia which is under sanctions. They're out of ideas, mired in scandals, they're nearly out of time, they need to be out of office.

The tories since 2010 have more than doubled national debt with their reliance on borrowing and privatisation instead of tax reform. 3) Increase in frontline staff vs the level of staffing AFTER the tories cut the levels of staff. 4) NHS waiting lists falling is a fallacy. We have 150k vacancies, nurses leaving for Australia because the pay and conditions are better. We've shut our doors to the European workers that helped us. The pay packages are woeful vs 2010 relative pay. 5) Tories bang on about us being able to do maths, but demonstrate how they are literally incapable of balancing the books. They wrote off tens of billions of fraud during 2021-2022, they refuse to decouple green energy from the price of gas, they refuse to apply the windfall tax properly, they refuse to spend our money on the things we want it spent on, and they insist on giving subsides and contracts to their mates.
