No kidding and somehow they get the label of being fiscally conservative when it's quite the opposite. Maybe that was true decades ago, but now all conservative governments can be counted on to do is leave the balance sheet a complete and utter mess by the time they get voted out. Not that the other options are much better but they are not nearly as disingenuous about it. They are conservative in terms of their archaic social policies but that's about it.
