What's interesting is whilst Shanghai has gone stellar - literally, in these massive buildings which have appeared since I first visited - Beijing has become a much more vibrant and interesting place. A lot more business is done here.
George Osborne
Image
I'm fed up with Britain being condemned to this future where we borrow the Chinese in order to buy from the Chinese the things that they make for us.
George Osborne
Image
If we don't get a grip on government spending, there will be no growth.
George Osborne
Image
British taxpayers should not bear the costs of problems in the Eurozone.
