Tory plans acc. to @TheIFS: Day to day spending cut, welfare cuts of £11 billion, 1% public sector pay cap, per pupil spending falls 7%.

Notice you're ignoring the fact the IFS have said your party would increase the deficit by £37 billion.
-
And that your party would have taxes at their highest ever peacetime level.

Could you quote where that is states "taxes at their highest ever peace level" or is that like all Tory smears untrue

Be quite difficult for them to be higher than they were in the late forties/fifties, I'd imagine.

I don't think at this point there will be an end to austerity while the Tories remain in power.

If anything it will get worse!
