Well British pension funds have not been investing the savings of British people in British infrastructure.

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.

I did meet Mickey Mouse in California, and he seems to be writing the Labour party's economic policy at the moment.

I would say I have taken substantive action to make things easier for people.

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.

I think the British people have a strong sense of what is fair.

Britain is not part of the single currency. That is a decision we have taken, a voluntary decision of this country, but as a result are part of a European Union 19 of whose members are rapidly integrating, creating political, fiscal, monetary, economic union to make their currency work. And that is increasingly rubbing up against the operation.
