Osborne: A pro-growth agenda
Chancellor George Osborne’s expected comments on Britain’s deficit reduction plan:
“We are shaping the economy of the future by promoting a pro-growth agenda.
“We are shaping the big society of the future by decentralising power and empowering people. We are shaping the public services of the future by reforming the public sector so it delivers value for money.
“And we are shaping Britain’s future role in the world through our review of defence and security.
“We will tackle soaring welfare bills.
“And we will refocus public spending in those areas that will make a difference to our long-term economic success.
“It is not about how much the government spends but about what the government actually does with the money.”
