Our incomes are like our shoes; if too small, they gall and pinch us; but if too large, they cause us to stumble and to trip. ↗

I will not accept a new wave of fiscal retrenchment, of belt-tightening, without asking people at the top to make their contribution, to make an additional contribution. I don't think you can ask people on middle and low incomes, who, after all, are the vast majority of the British population, to bear the brunt of this adjustment. ↗
