Here are a few of the key findings...
ECONOMIC GROWTH: Whilst Britain has outperformed our European neighbours, all other English-speaking wealthy countries have seen faster growth since Gordon Brown became Chancellor. Had Britain matched US levels of growth since 1997, the UK's GDP would have been £14 billion higher by 2006.Check out the flash game the Brown Calculator
TAX REGIME: Since 1997, the tax burden has increased in real terms by 51 per cent, placing an unsustainable burden on ordinary families and drastically slowing the rate of growth in disposable income. Government spending as a percentage of GDP has soared above the OECD average, corporate tax has remained high whilst competitors have introduced successful cuts, the size of the British tax code has doubled and the cost of administering the tax system has increased by at least 75 per cent.
PUBLIC DEBT: Since the Government's commitment to match Conservative spending plans expired in 2000, public debt has risen by 5.1 percentage points of GDP. When public sector pensions, PFI debt, nuclear decommissioning, Network Rail and Northern Rock are taken into account, actual Government liabilities total £1,898 billion - a massive 129 per cent of GDP.
PENSION FUNDS: Down £100 BILLION, cheers Gordon you utter contemptable one eye'd cuntmonkey.
According the European Central Bank our government pisses some 99 billion quid away in waste a year.
