The actual policies were called Six-Pack, Two-Pack, and the 2012 Fiscal Compact (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance),

    Nowhere in the paper you link does it imply that the EU imposed austerity policies on the UK.

    The Tories are the only ones responsible for the fiscal policies adopted after the recession.

    The EU imposed policy on all EU members. I've listed them, perhaps you should acknowledge that there were EU wide policies?

    What do you think happens when you put austerity measures in a single market, more or less economic activity?
