Gordon Brown’s speech to the Labour Party Spring Conference was hardly inspiring stuff. In fact, Rosa Prince tells you all you need to know over at Three Line Whip:
“Theme: Elitist Tories want cuts in public services and a referendum on the past (i.e. Europe) – Labour is delivering on opportunity for all.”
Here – for intrepid readers – is Brown’s version of that:
“So let me explain why only the Labour Party has the seriousness of purpose, the hunger for change, the passion for spreading opportunity, the mission of justice for all that can meet the rising ambitions of this new age.
Why? Because the Conservative Party have already confessed 10 billion pounds worth of tax cuts, tax cuts that we can demonstrate beyond doubt, disproportionately favour the wealthiest in society.
