I think you can look at the British economy with confidence.

We have supported the banks, they should be supporting the economy now.

Every day as Chancellor I see alerts telling me of risks around the world.

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

Britain is China's best partner in the West.

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.

Britain has no divine right to be one of the richest countries in the world.
