"Defunding local authorities. Building a long term financial crisis across English higher education. Failing to invest adequately in infrastructure at record low rates of borrowing. Cook the countrys long term finances with the triple lock. Defund the criminal justice system. Introduce the OBR. Randomly do poorly worded referenda. Nobody actually knows if its formally binding or not. Presume you win every time. Restore slave markets to Libya and accelerate the European refugee crisis by removing Gadaffi. Cameron and Osborne were imbeciles. The media loved them"
