Conservative Manifesto Cost Assesment

It doesn't exist! Another own goal for the Conservatives but not surprising given they've also not bothered doing an impact assesment for their own Brexit deal or even appear to understand it.

IIRC Javid's promises come up to ~54bn.



That doesn't come anywhere near £150BN, then again..so what?



Japan is at 240% of GDP and because they owe the debt to themselves, not foreign creditors, the FT and lany economists argue that they'll be fine for the foreseeable future. Furthmore, pound traders at JP Morgan etc are starting to favour Corbyn.



Tbh compared to Bojo he seems very competent..which is saying something with some of his slightly demented ideas.
