Public spending again: David Blanchflower slates George Osborne | ToUChstone blog: A public policy blog from the TUC.

Quoting Blanchflower in the New Statesman:

Mr Osborne, I really don’t know which economists are advising you on this brilliant strategy to increase unemployment, but feel free to give me a call.

Even the CBI does not buy the need for cuts.

There's just a chance the Tories might still lose this one if they continue as they are.
