Now we're finding out what happens when a Labour Government loses control of the public finances. You end up spending more on the interest on your debts than on public services like transport. It's very unusual for the IMF to single a country out in this way, but it just shows the massive scale of Brita...

I am today calling on the Treasury and the Financial Services Authority to combine forces and stop retail banks – in other words the banks that lend directly to businesses and families – paying out profits in significant cash bonuses. Full stop.

The plans that (Tory leader) David Cameron and (Shadow Chancellor) George Osborne outlined this week are the most wildly dangerous economic proposals that Britain has seen in the past 100 years ... They show absolutely no understanding of basic economics.

The Government’s economic policies are failing the people of Bradford. These figures show we are still in a recession and that blows apart the myth that Labour’s recovery plan is working.

George Osborne’s catchphrase at the Tory conference was 'We’re all in this together’. Perhaps he should make that 'except Conservative shadow chancellors and founder members of the Cameron club who flip their million-pound properties to dodge a £55,000 capital gains tax bill.’

Income tax receipts are set to rise by a third. Are ministers asking us to believe that this is due only to recovery from recession and the 50p rate?
