I first started going to Chelsea games in the mid-Nineties when I lived off the North End Road, ten minutes' walk from Stamford Bridge.
George Osborne -
If we don't get a grip on government spending, there will be no growth.
George Osborne

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.
George Osborne -
I want to see families with lower energy bills.
George Osborne -
I serve at the discretion of the prime minister.
George Osborne -
We need strength and success elsewhere in our country - not by pulling London down but by building the rest of the country up.
George Osborne -
It's normally the kiss of death to be identified as a rising star, or someone to watch.
George Osborne -
Sound public finances are not the enemy of sustained growth - they are its precondition.

Margaret Thatcher's government redistributed money from rich to poor. And that's the nature of a modern western democracy.

Tony Blair was a good politician but not a good Prime Minister, and that's what we don't want to be. We don't want to be just people who are good at winning elections: we want to be good at governing. I think we benefit from having seen the mistakes that we think Tony Blair made in 1997.

You know the illusion of the cheap money is over and now Britain has to go out there and graft and earn its way and create wealth and prosperity in a very competitive world.
George Osborne -
I would say I have taken substantive action to make things easier for people.
George Osborne -
I'm a very happy, content member of David Cameron's team. I fought very hard to get my friend elected as leader of the Conservative party, then elected as the prime minister of this country, and I'm very happy being part of that team that is bringing change to this country.
