If you voted Tory how do you feel about 'austerity is over'?

I keep hearing that May has told MPs that austerity is over, that it isn't what the people want. But isn't that what tory voters voted for? And are you not a bit annoyed by the backtracking?

I hold my hands up as a massive lefty and if the vote had gone the other way and labour had turned around and decided that, actually, austerity was the way forward, I'd be pretty pissed. I'm just wondering why there is do little reaction.

I promise I'm not being goady, I'm genuinely interested Smile

Ffs .

This is becoming a real witch hunt on TM by the left and the BBC.

TM is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't.

She really can't win.

There wasn't ever 'austerity' there were just ideological slashing of anything that was decent

I'm not a Tory voter, but I can't help but think that this will be followed with an attempt to dress up austerity as something else, which is likely (again) to affect disabled and poor people, but allow tax breaks (again) to the wealthy.
Maybe I'm just a jaded old doubting Thomas. Won't hold my breath though...
