As mentioned the other day, I recently interviewed David Cameron for the lastest issue of the Spectator. We’ve just uploaded that article onto the website – you can read it here. But he also answered your questions, and at some length. I grouped together many which were on the same theme. To business:-
So, why Follow Gordon Brown’s spending plans?
* Last Thursday showed that the country doesn’t believe Brown. Why does he together with George Osborne still believe that Brown’s spending plans are sustainable ? (Gavin, 10.22am)
* Now the Tories have proved they are a credible opposition and the public is listening to what you say will you break from Labour’s spending plans that are leading this country to ruin? (Mike, 9.19am)
* I’d love to know why, at this point, Mr. Cameron does not simply go to the electorate and say “I know I said I would match Labour’s spending plans over the first two years of a Conservative government, but the economic situation has changed and this would no longer be a wise or prudent way of spending money up to 2012.
