I think that we need to be much bolder and go much further moving towards a trusted economic and security partnership, where the default is the UK is included not excluded.
Radical change is only possible if it comes with credibility. That is my mission as Chancellor. That is the mission of this government, and I know it will remain the mission of the next.
But look at the big picture, look at the plan, look at the strategy that I have been pursuing, and that strategy was to return stability to the economy, to enable interest rates to come down.
I’m impatient for change, and I totally get that people want to see their lives changed.
