In a BBC interview this morning the new Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Lib Dem David Laws, told of a letter that was waiting for him from his Labour predecessor when he arrived to take up his new role.
The letter was from Liam Byrne and consisted of just one sentence - “I’m afraid to tell you there is no money left.”
It might have been a joke but with the coalition seeking to make Labour’s financial record the first battle-ground post election, I cannot help but see this being used time and time again as the shit begins to hit the fan.
