We've had a Tory prime minister for seven years now, so blaming the last Labour government for everything is wearing a bit thin, but they certainly went to town with it in their first term. In particular, Labour was apparently responsible for the worldwide financial crash of 2008-9 (forget subprime mortgages, rapacious international capitalism, too-big-to-fail banks, etc.), a lie they repeated so often that it became "true" for the purposes of political debate.
