>Why all the upset about £1Billion?

During Osborne's tenure as Chancellor he printed (Quantitatively Eased) £450 Billion and the last two governments have increased the ridiculous national debt of £700 Billion left by Labour to £1800 Billion.

Seems odd everyone is getting so exercised over the odd 30 or 40 billion quid here and there.
