"LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's record national debt is the biggest threat to the economy, the Conservative Party will say on Wednesday as it puts the Labour government's economic record at the centre of its election campaign.With an election expected on May 6, both main parties are turning up the rhetoric on who should run a country just emerging from a recession that wiped out 6.0 percent of output and pushed the budget deficit to above 12 percent of GDP."
