IN MY print column this week, I try to distill a week of watching the Labour Party and the trade union anti-cuts movement into a couple of questions for Ed Miliband, Labour’s leader. I suggest he cannot return to government without answering this: what is Labour for when money is tight? And I think his answer to that question will not be taken seriously until he answers this one: does he think public spending before the credit crunch was sustainable?
