Without wishing to bore everyone with the details and drawing this out into a protracted debate, 3.8% and 4.4%, whilst being less than a percent, is still a lot of extra lucre. 8.6% to 'fix the roof' and get it off its knees, followed by the 4.4% commitment is consistently higher than any of the Tory administrations in the graphic and significantly higher than the derisory 0.7% of the ConDem coalition.
