New UK Government to cut the budget deficit

British Prime Minister David Cameron closed the opportunity to coalition with Nick Clegg of the Liberal Democratic Party, but allied with the central bank governor Mervyn King to cut the budget.

The central bank governor supported the plan to cut Cameron’s record budget deficit after discussing the government proposal through a telephone line with Chancellor George Osborne. The new government plan for a two-month emergency budget.

Cameron King’s statement will help to increase his power after the Conservatives failed to win a majority in elections last week, so he was forced to form a first coalition in England since World War II.

His comments may also be drawn criticism within the Labor Party, an opposition party, which makes the increase in spending and efforts to maintain the economic recovery as the jargon of the campaign.

“It was a gift from the central bank (BoE), whereby the central bank to strengthen the political position of the Democratic coalition of Liberals and Conservatives,” said Michael Saunders, chief economist of Citigroup Inc Western European in his notes to investors today.

King’s tenure that lasted five years ended in 2013. Politically, he is always independent of the law and restrict the statement on monetary policy.
