The crash in 2008 forced their hand to cut public funding following a fiscal boost..which BTW was no fault of tories (or Labour for that matter). All other parties would have had to take this action and would get this criticism at a later point.

It's all a bit like your wife having a pop at you for you not paying for a holiday next year when you are funding energy bills.
I’m sorry but I disagree.. there’s been no long term planning for anything, no foundation set for anything. India just took over the UK as a g6 nation. Tell me, has our gdp got any better since 2009?
While labour had their faults at least they were more understanding towards our public services. Not this, awarding of contracts to mates that’s what happened while people were getting done by covid. Starmer doesn’t fill me with any confidence but at least he has integrity.
