One for the ironic statistics corner.
Count up the number of people in each of the three main party’s Cabinet/Shadow Cabinet (taking the listings from their official national party websites).
Line up the party’s in order of enthusiasm for cutting public spending.

Labour – 23 members
Liberal Democrats – 30 members
Conservatives – 32 members
Hmm.
