Unreformed, unpunished, unrepentant about what they did to the economy and the deficit they racked up.
Boris Johnson attacks Labour’s record on the economy in his speech at the Conservative Party Conference yesterday. Johnson used his speech (after first wishing the Prime Minister "happy birthday") to promote business in the UK capital, particularly products manufactured in London. He referenced cake exported to Paris, and mosquito repellent that is made in the capital and sent to Brazil.
