“The tide is turning against an austerity approach” says Miliband

Following his meeting with French President Francois Hollande today, Ed Miliband said:

“The points of agreement we have were around the fact that the tide is turning against an austerity approach, that there needs to be a different way forward found.

“What President Hollande is seeking to do in France and what he is seeking to do in leading the debate in Europe is find that different way forward.

“We are in agreement in seeking that new way that needs to be found and I think can be found.”
