The two main parties have been defending their big spending plans to a potentially hostile audience today: business leaders.
Boris Johnson told the CBI conference he would cancel a planned cut in corporation tax – claiming he’d use the cash for public services instead.
Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn defended his plans to take some key services into public ownership – calling it an essential step towards building a ‘genuinely mixed economy’.
And Jo Swinson described the Lib Dems as the natural party of business because of their plans to cancel Brexit.
