Electioneering is putting confidence in Britain's economy at risk

Telegraph
"Those fears make Mr Brown’s message to the G20 that governments should go on another spending spree next year even more extraordinary. I share Mr Darling’s hope that we will come out of recession this year.Yet that exposes the fundamental contradiction at the heart of the Labour argument. If they expect the economy to return to growth this year, how can they continue with large increases in public spending next year that the country cannot afford?Most other countries are looking for ways to turn the spending taps off, not to open them up."
