There is a point though, where a small budget deficit doesn't matter that much. At that point, debt would be increasing at a minute rate, and shrinking rapidly compared to GDP.
So, some cuts are good, but just not a relentless Tory austerity drive (which Osborne doesn't actually follow anyhow - even he knows not to)
We still need to reduce it further. £70 billion is a lot of money.
That is true, but Labour will cut far too slowly.
