Labour Borrow Way Out of Financial Crisis, Again
Guido has reported with interest on the internal restructuring going on over at Labour HQ during the last few months. Two weeks ago the party finalised their austerity programme, hoping that a spate of voluntary redundancies and structural reform would rake in significant efficiency savings. They need to – Labour overspends by £1.7 million each year.
Guido has pointed out the hypocrisy of advocating increased public sector borrowing to tackle the economy’s woes while making cuts within the party, but now it seems Labour’s money men might be toeing the same line as the Shadow Chancellor. The latest figures show that Labour has almost £10,000,000 worth of loans outstanding and, while cuts had apparently been seen as the order of the day, they have taken out new loans worth £7,300 in the second quarter of 2012:

Balls Beau’s BBC Bias
“The BBC is locked to the reading of the economy that is run out of Ed Miliband and Ed Balls’ office. They think if only you spend and borrow more money you can create growth everywhere. This is the general tenor of everything that comes out of the BBC. They expected the (employment) figures to be flatlining. They convinced themselves youth unemployment would continue to rise, but when it fell they were in a complete quandary. Stephanie Flanders poured cold water over the whole thing. She said: ‘Of course this is good news, but it could be because we aren’t productive enough’. If the unemployment figures had gone up, we would have been on the BBC TV News at Six and Ten and would have got the blame. When the news is good, the BBC view is ‘Get the Government out of the picture quickly, don’t allow them to say anything about it’. When the news is bad, it’s ”Let’s all dump on the Government’. Flanders was peeing all over British industry and the private sector. It was terrible.”
It’s almost as if journalists at the Beeb only read the Guardian
