Chris Leslie, Labour’s Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, responding to George Osborne’s interview on Murnaghan, said:

“The Conservative Party’s secret plan has now been exposed.

"Asked four times, George Osborne repeatedly refused to rule out another top-rate tax cut for millionaires.

"The Tories have raised taxes for millions but cut them for millionaires. And it’s now clear that if they win the election they’ll do the same again.

"While Labour’s better and fairer plan will back tax cuts for working people, these same old Tories always stand up for the few.”
