In Monday’s episode of The Daily T, live from the Labour Party conference in Liverpool, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley react to Chancellor John Healey’s speech to delegates.
They analyse his pledge that businesses – rather than the Government – will fuel Britain’s growth, and his promise to stop the welfare bill from soaring further. Before next month’s Budget, the Chancellor vowed a “new age of industrialisation” and declared that Britain “will hope again” under Andy Burnham’s leadership.
Camilla and Tim also discuss the Chancellor’s nostalgic references to past Labour governments – as well as his anecdotes about a miner’s lamp on his desk and wearing a red tie signed by Gordon Brown, the former prime minister and chancellor, to deliver his speech.
