Chris Leslie MP, Labour’s Shadow Chief Secretary to
the Treasury, responding to David Cameron’s article in the Guardian, said:

“David Cameron claims his policies are working, but as even Sir John Major admits, most people still aren’t feeling the recovery.

"Working people are £1600 a year worse off under his government, borrowing is going up so far this year and exports have fallen behind our competitors.

"David Cameron should be trying to strengthen growth and make sure working people finally benefit from it, not making excuses for slower growth.

"Only Labour’s economic plan will deliver a recovery for the many, not
just a few at the top. And we’ll balance the books, but do so in a fairer way by reversing David Cameron’s tax cut for millionaires.”
