Economy and spending

Asked whether the PM would increase police spending in the Spending Review for 2015/16, the PMS said that the Spending Review process was underway but decisions had yet to be made. Asked whether the PM had full confidence in the Chancellor, the PMS said that the PM did. Asked if the PM had confidence in the Chancellor’s economic plans considering the performance of the economy and whether we had something to learn from Liberia’s good economic performance, the PMS reminded journalists that one of the biggest impacts on the UK economy was the crisis in the Eurozone and we want to see a conclusion to that crisis; also the Government inherited a record deficit, it had a plan to deal with the record deficit, and it would stick to that plan.
