One big theme for me is that we have got to move from an economy built on debt to one where we save and invest in the future.
Why don't we save and invest in our future and start making the things that millions of Chinese consumers are going to want in the future.
Our first benchmark is to cut the deficit more quickly to safeguard Britain’s credit rating. I know that we are taking a political gamble to set this up as a measure of success. Protecting the credit rating will not be easy The pace of fiscal consolidation will be co-ordinated with monetary policy. And we will protect Britain's credit rating and international reputation.
Each time I come it's amazing to watch the development of this incredible country [China].
If you're looking for ways to cut waste in government, you can start with John Prescott.
I very much support financial education in schools.
The Conservative party, the modern Conservative party, is on the side of people who want to work hard and get on.
Britain is China's best partner in the West.
There are those who are trying to create an anti-business culture in Britain - and we have to stop them. At stake are not pay packages for a few but jobs and prosperity for the many.
Autism is a very serious condition.
The British people think that if someone is disabled, then they should get all the care and support that we can offer.

I want to see genuine talent rewarded.
I understand the damage the expenses crisis has done to Parliament, and the paramount importance of restoring trust in our politics.
I did meet Mickey Mouse in California, and he seems to be writing the Labour party's economic policy at the moment.
Britain should not be forced to make a choice between joining the single currency and leaving the EU, because if we're forced to make that choice we would leave the EU.
Britain has no divine right to be one of the richest countries in the world.
Britain needs a simpler tax system which is simple to understand, where there are no loop-holes, where the very rich do not avoid tax by employing expensive accountants
I would say I have taken substantive action to make things easier for people.
I see no real argument in Britain that is concerned that an Indian company owns our most successful car manufacturer or that the sewer system under London is being renewed in part by Chinese investment. There are the odd voices that express concern but they are very marginal and they are not being listened to by the British people.
I want Britain to be the home of successful competitive and stable financial services.
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.
When you look at the things people are really fed up with, like the collapse of the pension system, like the failure to get money to the frontline of the health service, Gordon Brown is more responsible for that than any other politician including Tony Blair
Well you know I've attracted a lot of criticism by, for example, suggesting that child benefit should be taken away from higher rate taxpaying families.
Cutting budget deficits can never be just an exercise in economics.
