	Cass Business School \| The Rt. Hon Kenneth Clarke, MP, speaks at Cass
		Mr Clarke’s speech sought to debunk the myth that Gordon Brown is a “good Chancellor”, arguing instead that the latter’s success is an “illusion”.
		Clarke highlighted that ‘prudence’, the watchword which defined the Iron Chancellor’s economic policies in Labour’s first term, have been relegated to the history books, only to be replaced by a ruthless tax-and-spend policy that no longer marks out Mr Brown as the champion of a robust economy.
		Mr Clarke argued that the “golden economic legacy” Mr Brown inherited in 1997 has been squandered: Labour has not strengthened the nation’s wealth-creating base and Britain has dropped from fourth to eleventh in the World Economic Forum’s international competitiveness table.

		Likewise, Mr Clarke is one of the Tory heavyweights most explicitly opposed to the war in Iraq.
