Ahead of next week’s Budget, Kemi Badenoch has challenged Andy Burnham to take the tough decisions needed to get Britain living within its means.
Businesses cannot afford to hire. Young people are struggling to find work. Families face the threat of yet more tax rises.
Yet Labour are cutting £2 billion from defence while letting the benefits bill soar. Fictional spending cuts will not fix the public finances.
Britain needs a government willing to make real choices.
Only the Conservatives have a clear plan to cut the welfare bill by £36 billion, Get Britain Working and fund a stronger defence.
