More quotes by George Osborne
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
You need to have a state pension that doesn't drag more and more people into means-testing each year and make it very difficult for people on low to medium term incomes to save and not see their savings clawed away.
George Osborne
You know the illusion of the cheap money is over and now Britain has to go out there and graft and earn its way and create wealth and prosperity in a very competitive world.
George Osborne
We have supported the banks, they should be supporting the economy now.
George Osborne
I get a lot of letters from people.
George Osborne
I have done everything I can to move Britain out of the financial danger zone.
George Osborne
Britain has no divine right to be one of the richest countries in the world.
George Osborne
Well British pension funds have not been investing the savings of British people in British infrastructure.
George Osborne
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
Establishing proper economic governance that allows the Eurozone to undertake the integration it needs whilst protecting the interests of the single market for all 28, the rights of member states who are not in the Euro - including of course the UK - is really important for the future of the European Union.
George Osborne
I want Britain to be the home of successful competitive and stable financial services.
George Osborne
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
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
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
I want to see genuine talent rewarded.
George Osborne
I would say I have taken substantive action to make things easier for people.
George Osborne
I would also like to see children aged between 11 and 18 taught financial education in a structured way in schools. I would also say that that is not enough. You have also got to improve numeracy skills, mathematical skills in schools.
George Osborne
I reject absolutely the idea that people should know their place, and know their class.
George Osborne
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
A generous basic state pension is the least a civilized society should offer those who have worked hard and saved through their whole lives.
George Osborne
