OK, you keep on using this as a forum for expressing your political views - most of which appear to have been gained from the pages of the tabloids. As your posts appear to be anti-everything it's hard to know where your rants come from, but in this case it seems to be anti-Tory. So here's your answer.
First understand the difference between debt and deficit. Then understand how the people that whinge about the debt are the same people that whinge about the Government's efforts to reduce the deficit. Finally understand how outraged you and yours would be if the Government had imposed those savings more quickly - quickly enough to reduce their inherited deficit to below zero and, thereby, start to reduce the debt.
It's very simple if you take the trouble to understand it.
Now, why don't we use this forum to discuss Military Aviation?
