Stephen Williams: Miliband talks while Liberal Democrats deliver
Responding to Ed Miliband's comments on the Andrew Marr Show, Co-chair of the Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Party Treasury Committee, Stephen Williams said:
"Ed Miliband is confused and inconsistent. He now says that he supports Government cuts, having spent the last 18 months opposing and voting against almost every single one.
"He says he wants to clamp down on vested interests while his party is bankrolled by the unions, and end crony capitalism when it was his Government that let the banks run riot and allowed corporate pay to spiral.
"But most notably he still refuses to admit that Labour got it wrong on the economy.
"While Ed Miliband talks, Liberal Democrats are cleaning up Labour's mess and delivering in Government what we championed for years in opposition.
"We're cutting taxes for the lowest earners, protecting pensioners and giving every child a fair start through the pupil premium, whilst targeting unfairness at the top by clamping down on tax avoidance, corporate pay and hitting the banks with a £2.5bn bank levy."
