Original Note:
In May 2010, when the Conservative-led coalition came to power, the national debt was £1.03 trillion. As of March 2019 it had risen to £1.80 trillion. Under a conservative government, the debt increased by 80 Trillion. 38.5 Billion is a small number considering. https://fullfact.org/economy/debt-and-deficit/#:~:text=What%20is%20the%20UK's%20public,risen%20to%20%C2%A31.80%20trillion.
