Very striking that @theresa_may plans 5 more years of austerity(see @TheIFS) but is trying to pretend otherwise. She deserves to be asked...
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.
-
Well, that's the IFS statement, look it up.

Is this same IFS study that says Tory immigration plans leave £6bn hole in *their* plans and which say Labours plans bring surplus in 2020?

..the
@TheIFS.The tax burden could rise to around 37 per cent under Labour by 2022, higher than at any time since 1950, according to the IFS -
I meant link to the source.

From what I've read from your article and other says that Labour are being optimistic (understandable). 1/2
-
However IFS have also said Cons aren't being honest with their costings. It seems the IFS are split on this one. 2/2
-
To be fair, both being dishonest.
