ITK ...your 'looney Labour' ..... I'm not sure they can be blamed for Spain's woes.

from Wikipedia -

New records were set at the elections. The ruling Spanish Socialist Workers' Party under Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba was badly punished at the polls, winning only 110 seats and 28.8% of the share, their worst result in a Spanish general election since transition to democracy.

Rubalcaba's party's poor performance came as a result of Spain's high unemployment rate, the highest in the European Union, as well as previous PM José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero's government's handling of the economic situation after the severe financial crisis that had been affecting the country since 2008.

Spain has a Conservative government.

it has now !!!!!

Labour (called the Spanish Socialist Workers Party !) were kicked out in Nov 2011 suffering their biggest election loss since Spain became a democracy (achieving only 28.8% of the vote)!

Just like here ... the Conservative government now has to put the damage right.
In The Know But DJones ....

You have to start from where you are !
You cannot abandon a plan entirely and do something else - you have to adapt / change existing plans etc. Thats what Osbourne is doing.

If he were not reducing the deficit ...
How come last months borrowings were £2 BILLION below the same month last year (and £2 Billion below forecast) ?

How come, also that the IMF / Poor & Moodys etc have left us with out AAA credit rating - whereas everyone else has been reduced and now have to pay MORE to borrow (and need to borrow MORE anyway) ?
