The British people think that if someone is disabled, then they should get all the care and support that we can offer.
George Osborne
Image
What I'm interested in is Britain projecting itself abroad, and through that its values and the things it holds dear. And I don't think you do that by refusing to talk to the world's second-largest economy [China]. In fact, that is positively counter-productive in my view.
George Osborne
Image
The positive news is that the British economy is continuing to grow and is creating jobs. And it is positive news too that at a time of real international instability we are a safe haven in the storm.
George Osborne

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
I think it is absolutely central to our economic plan as a country not only that we put our own house in order but that we better connect ourselves with other parts of the world, particularly the faster growing parts of the world.
George Osborne

I want to see genuine talent rewarded.

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.

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
We need a coalition in this country. A coalition of change. People who have had enough of this.

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
Britain has no divine right to be one of the richest countries in the world.
George Osborne
Image
If we don't get a grip on government spending, there will be no growth.
George Osborne
Image
We will also target tax evasion and off-shore tax havens... Everyone must pay their share.
George Osborne
Image
We want people to have a stake in the British economy so I am in favour of actually encouraging people to have small shareholdings and feel they've got a stake in our economic future.
George Osborne
Image
There is a big problem. The problem is the country borrowed too much. We went on a borrowing binge, there was a housing boom. You want to help people de-leverage and deal with those debts over time.
George Osborne
Image
The Conservative Party mustn't sound like the old man on the park bench who says things were better in 1985, or 1955, or 1855.
George Osborne
Image
British taxpayers should not bear the costs of problems in the Eurozone.
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.
