Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Forecast.


Autumn Forecast

My hon. Friend makes an extremely good point. What is happening here is a rebalancing of the economy. I hear the shadow Chancellor muttering away about what he calls slow growth, but according to the European Commission forecasts today our growth is more rapid than that of Germany, France, the United States of America or Japan, as well as than the EU average and the eurozone average. I am not sure what his proposals are to increase that growth rate but if he has some, now is the time to produce them.
