I had gathered this was the case but it’s good to see it paid out so clearly. Is there a summary that shows how much the economy has grown during each parties time in office?
Sorry: I have not done that
The loan data from the House of Commons Library does not include the 1946 loan from USA/Canada (about $5 billion – rather significant when Government deficit/surpluses were in the region of +/- £100 million).
Did you check whether the 1976 IMF loan was included in the statistics – does not appear to be an increase in borrowing expected in 1976, so it would appear that it was not.
