David Cameron's message to the British people was both sombre and predictable.
The state of the economy is 'worse than first thought' when the Coalition took office and Labour's gross overspending has left our finances in an utter 'mess'.
From the start, the Conservatives have said their priority, if they won the election, would be to reduce the huge budget deficit. It is a job that has to be done, and done quickly.
The Prime Minster has promised to consult the electorate on where cuts should occur.
The new coalition have already announced over £6bn worth of cuts to various ministries and will announce more specific measures in the forthcoming budget.
If ministers are so keen to consult the public, why haven't they been consulted up to now?
It will be very interesting to see just how much 'consultation' with the public will actually take place.
