2010 the Tories came into power and tried to austerity their way out of the financial crisis, which even at the time was criticised as being the wrong plan
2016 we get Brexit
2020 we had the COVID mismanagement that kept us in lockdown much longer that we’d have otherwise needed to be
2022 we get trussonomics
2024 was Rishi trying to win votes with uncosted policies
2025 our traditionally centre left party is trying to court the voters going to the far right. So we are getting more austerity
It’s right wing politics

Many countries did austerity in 2010 and yet some came out better off while UK in particular did not.
