We have created more than 2m apprenticeships (). Employment is now at 73.3% the highest recorded number since records began ().
The Liberal Democrats have an alternative economic plan for Britain. We will borrow £70bn less than Labour and cut £50bn less than Tories ().
We also have a five point plan to make Britain the largest economy in Europe by 2035.
The 2015 budget announcement saw the announcement of a number of Liberal Democrats achievements, including:
– Reducing the Lifetime Allowance for pension contributions from £1.25m to £1m
– A tax cut of £905 for millions of workers through raising the personal allowance to £11,000
