Quite. Falling real living standards for the majority for the last 8
years or so is far more to your taste.

Sorting out the last socialist mess.

Exactly.

And as for "falling real living standards for the majority" obviously
Comrade Plowman wasn't around when inflation got to 15% & higher under
Wilson & his mob, & when the pound lost 14% of its value. Compared to
/that/, the last eight years are nothing.
