It’s been a couple of weeks since we asked CoffeeHousers to put forward their questions for George Osborne. We’ve since picked out the best ten, which have now been put to the shadow chancellor. He’ll get back to us over the next couple of days.
The CoffeeHousers whose questions were chosen can e-mail me on phoskin @ spectator.co.uk to claim their t-shirt and 180th Anniversary issue of the magazine.
Anyway, here are the questions:

Nicholas
