If we don't get a grip on government spending, there will be no growth.
George Osborne
Image
We have supported the banks, they should be supporting the economy now.
George Osborne
Image
There are those people who don't want change. Well there needs to be a coalition for change amongst the hard-working mainstream majority of the country to crack on and sort out Britain's problems.
George Osborne
Image
No other chancellor in the long history of the office has felt the need to pass a law in order to convince people he has the political will to implement his own Budget.
George Osborne
Image
I believe that I'm entitled to regard my pre-political life as off-limits in terms of what can be looked at and judged.
George Osborne
Image
I reject absolutely the idea that people should know their place, and know their class.
George Osborne
Image
We support the auto-enrolment but we have our doubts about the way the National Pension Scheme is going to be structured.
George Osborne
Image
Well look, no one takes pleasure from people making money out of the misery of others, but that is a function of capitalist markets.
George Osborne
Image
One big theme for me is that we have got to move from an economy built on debt to one where we save and invest in the future.
George Osborne
Image
What makes people angry and we are on the side of hard-working people who want to get on in life and they see how government is wasting their money.
George Osborne
Image
The Foreign Office is a very important arm of the British state and I think Britain has a fantastic diplomatic service. We are the only country in the world spending 2% of our national income on defence and 0.7% of our national income on aid. We are the only country in the world doing both of those things.
George Osborne
Image
Put on top of that the fact that the whole world is looking at Britain and saying how is this country going to pay its way in the future. They are looking at other countries like Greece who can't pay their way in the future and you see savage spending cuts, big cuts in pay.
George Osborne
Image
Britain cannot afford to cut itself off from what is going on in the world, we are too interconnected with what is going on, we have a powerful history and tradition of taking an interest in what is going on in the world, we've also got a very real interest in the future, in remaining connected.
George Osborne
Image
I want Britain to be a global financial centre but I want it to be properly regulated.
George Osborne
Image
There are those who are trying to create an anti-business culture in Britain - and we have to stop them. At stake are not pay packages for a few but jobs and prosperity for the many.
George Osborne
Image
Britain wants the single currency to be a success. It is massively in our interests that we have a stable financial system on our doorstep.
George Osborne
Image
Britain should not be forced to make a choice between joining the single currency and leaving the EU, because if we're forced to make that choice we would leave the EU.
George Osborne
Image
I want Britain to be the home of successful competitive and stable financial services.
George Osborne
Image
I'm not saying job done but I am actually pretty confident that Britain can be one of the biggest winners from these big global changes that are taking place and indeed become the richest of the major economies in the world in this coming generation.
George Osborne
Image
I have done everything I can to move Britain out of the financial danger zone.
