George Osborne slams 'old' Labour to Cardiff business leaders

The assembly election is a choice between "pro-job, pro-growth" Conservatives and "old and discredited" Labour ideas, the chancellor has said.

George Osborne said Welsh Tory leader Andrew RT Davies could bring a "magic combination" of improved education, a better NHS and competitive businesses.

Mr Osborne was speaking to business leaders at a Cardiff Bay hotel.

A Welsh government spokesman accused the chancellor of chanting a "bunch of weary, re-heated political slogans".
