Lively debate on Darling’s options

Nov 22 2008 by Alistair Houghton, Liverpool Daily Post

TUNE into this weekend's LDP Business Week to hear a debate about next week's all- important Pre-Budget Statement.

Treasury Minister and Wallasey MP Angela Eagle defends the government's record on managing the economy under fire from City of LIverpool Conservative Party chairman, textile manufacturer Tony Caldeira.

The pair lock horns on the programme ahead of Monday's Pre-Budget Report by Chancellor Alistair Darling, which is expected to herald major tax cuts in a bid to reinvigorate Britain's struggling economy.

The debate takes place during LDP Business Week, aired at 11am on CityTalk 105.9fm and digital radio.

The programme also takes a look at the latest developments on the high street as shops slash prices to compete for trade in the run up to Christmas.
