Nicola Willis is defending her economic track record in the face of a lobby-group's satirical campaign.
The Taxpayers' Union has sent MPs Nicola Willis-branded fudge, claiming she favours treats today and taxes tomorrow.
It suggests Willis should cut spending more.
Willis says the Government has reduced taxes and delivered significant cost savings while keeping frontline services.

He says that while the Government has cut spending in a number of areas, we’re still spending more than we’re bringing in in taxes.
