From the printed version of this article in the Evening Standard:
Mr Osborne said: "According to Gordon Brown's logic, carrying on wasting money is crucial to securing the recovery. We think this is wrong. No one can seriously argue that tackling waste is somehow going to damage the economy".
What they were talking about was George's claim that a Tory government would not impose the hike in National Insurance. Whether that proposal is worth the paper it's written on is another topic, but as The Second Worst Tax, it's definitely one that should be reduced as a matter of urgency... as per UKIP's manifesto.
No wonder he's never around

JH, indeedy. It's a 'tax on [certain] jobs' and a stealth tax on profits.
