I hate the fuck ups that Labour has made as much as anyone but you have to think, how would the tories have handled it.
In my estimation probably the same or worse.

but the Tories would not have overinflated the state to such an extent
resulting in the need to borrow huge sums of money during our prosperous years and leaving us dangerously exposed to the global recession.

Really, any party's manifesto should read
Vote for us, we promise we'll try to not fuck it up as much as the other bunch would. And if we do, vote for us again so we can try to sort it out.

see I'd say probably the same or slightly better

I think you're very wrong
the Tories would not have increased spending as much, and they are now saying they will cut it radically, the only thing that stopped the country completely imploding was government spending, and that needs to be cut and teh debt paid off, but not as quickly as the Tories say or we will be straight back into recession. The tories have said they won't cunt the NHS, or education, or public services. But they are lying.
