But is the media, especially the Tory Press covering the part where they point out the Tory’s are doing the exact same thing or are they just giving the Tory attacks a run without mentioning that it’s the same spending/cuts the Tory’s are doing

I know that people like you can easily put 2 & 2 together but I worry that the average voter, the ones who decide elections, aren’t that engaged and might just see a series of story’s about Labour irresponsibly

Well, the claim didn’t get a lot of coverage either so most voters won’t have seen it. But when you get a track record of doing spending attacks that lack credibility it’s harder for them to get traction and easier for Labour to rebut them.
