Mr Maude
We hope that those savings will rise to £15 billion in the current year, and potentially to £20 billion the following year, with a further £5 billion, at least, after that. If only the Leader of the Opposition had started to do this when he held my job, perhaps we would not have inherited quite the size of public sector deficit that we did, but I am afraid that he was showing weak leadership even then.

Miss Chloe Smith
We were doing more over the summer to introduce a statutory register of lobbyists than Labour ever did.
