            And how did you cope with all the responsibility of looking after the Stationery Cupboard?

              True austerity would be an end to eye-watering government waste but that is not going to happen unless we get rid of government, the civil service and local government altogether.

                  Theresa May has predicted "better days ahead" after Brexit, with UK debt continuing to fall and support public services will go up.

                  Addressing her party conference in Birmingham, the prime minister said people needed to know that austerity was over and "their hard work has paid off".
