@KendrickLemuur Nice try. You know I don’t support a confirmatory or other 2nd referendum as this would be a betrayal of the promise I made in the 2017 GE & will make again in this one to respect the referendum we have already held, and implement that decision to leave, and via the PM’s deal. — PolitiTweet.org

@suffolkboy76 @MalcolmAllard @RichardSober @leeparkernewton From the chart here it’s a fall in debt interest as % of GDP from around 2.6% of GDP in 2010/11 to around 2% now. Future path complicated by interest inevitably rising at some point. Hence the need for prudent finances but not sure there’s much of that in Labour’s plans, eg IFS. — PolitiTweet.org

@suffolkboy76 @MalcolmAllard @RichardSober @leeparkernewton We never promised to eliminate it in the first year but without wishing to labour the point that is what, in theory, you would have had to have done to stop debt from continuing to rise. — PolitiTweet.org

@MalcolmAllard @suffolkboy76 @RichardSober @leeparkernewton What deeper cuts of £100bn pa+ would you have made to eliminate the deficit immediately we came to office so debt fell in absolute terms? — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
@suffolkboy76 @MalcolmAllard @RichardSober @leeparkernewton To reiterate: debt has risen under us, therefore it is higher than when we came to power, but to have not risen would have required eliminating the record postwar deficit we inherited in 2010 in one year with tens of billions more ‘austerity’, whereas we cut it gradually. — PolitiTweet.org

After a chilly but v positive day out on the Shotley peninsula it was good to have another campaign catch up with @BBCSuffolk at lovely Pin Mill. https://t.co/1vgrNxPlYJ — PolitiTweet.org

@MalcolmAllard @suffolkboy76 @RichardSober @leeparkernewton I believe in the latest figures the national debt as a share of GDP fell from 84.6% to 84.2%. https://t.co/4VAmXS65Rg — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
@suffolkboy76 @RichardSober @leeparkernewton No. The deficit is lower, about 75% lower, but the debt has still risen because lower deficits nevertheless add to the grand total. — PolitiTweet.org

@caro20005 Caroline, I believe you attended my Lavenham Brexit Q&A where I set out in detail for 1.5 hours why & how I believe we can make a success of Brexit if we are sensible about it. — PolitiTweet.org

@caro20005 Or we held a referendum & the country voted to leave, & I promised along with all other Tory & Lab candidates in the 2017 result to respect that result. — PolitiTweet.org

@RichardSober @leeparkernewton I am glad you understand economics extremely well but I have not said debt has risen due to more ‘interest on the debt’. I’m pleased to say that cost has been slashed, but because of accumulated deficits (primarily) and the point is they have fallen steadily each year. — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
@wpetre44 1. Why did Labour manifesto of 2010 promise similar path of consolidation? Just maybe there was no alternative. 2. If to ‘shrink the state’ why has it continued to grow? — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
@wpetre44 The point is that I was criticised in response to my tweet for govt debt rising under us. So were we too austere or not enough? Both criticisms cannot be right. — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
Apologies, debate on debt has risen but meant to say debt!! — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
Finally, our gradual approach has not only led to debt falling as a share of GDP but delivered record low unemployment with previous retrenchments delivering a lower deficit with deeper joblessness. Much sharper cuts to avoid overall debt rising would have hit growth harder. — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
We proceeded gradually. Each year the deficit fell steadily but still increased total debt. To those criticising this rise in debt, while simultaneously knocking the inevitable ‘austerity’ this implied, must say what further deep cuts they would have implemented to avoid this... — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
Therefore to stop debt rising at all in our first year we would have to have added to existing savings by spending cuts or tax rises of a further £150bn, equivalent to the current UK health budget. This would in reality have been counter productive & we instead... — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
To those saying debate has continued to rise under us, correct. But rather missing the point. In 2010 we inherited a record postwar budget deficit of around 10% of GDP or circa £150bn. Each year’s deficit is borrowed & added to the total accumulated debt... — PolitiTweet.org

Tonight wasn't the first time that Jeremy Corbyn failed to answer the basic question of whether he thinks we should leave or remain - he also failed when I asked him during the Second Reading of the Withdrawal Agreement in October #LeadersDebate #VoteConservative https://t.co/8GpBRxKhuT — PolitiTweet.org
James Cartlidge MP 🇬🇧 🇺🇦 @jcartlidgemp
Corbyn says the next Labour manifesto will be fully funded. Correct. It will. By debt. And more debt. #LeadersDebate — PolitiTweet.org

@Annette92066761 @CofEsuffolk @stedscath @HouseofCommons Agree with your sentiment, very worrying. Clearly v much an evolving situation but no doubt if Commons were sitting we would probably have a statement, and priority is to communicate the need for de-escalation. — PolitiTweet.org
