We simply can't spend our way out of a recession.

You can't borrow your way to prosperity.

You can't spend your way to prosperity.

Borrowing and spending is not the way to prosperity.

If you're trying to get out of debt, you have to be willing to treat everything as expendable.

You cannot just keep borrowing more and more and keep spending more and more without eventually having a day of reckoning.

You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

You can't be in debt and win. It doesn't work.

You cannot tackle Britain's debts without tackling the unreformed welfare system.

Whether they run a record company or a grocery store, every boss will tell you you're in big trouble if you're borrowing more than you can ever afford to pay back. Delaying the pain for future generations is suicidal. We've got to start getting the deficit down right now, not next year.
