A former Conservative Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, Mr Peter Thorneycroft, complained in the House of Commons tonight that the Government was spending too much money.
In a debate on the budget ,roposals, announced on Mon- ay, he warned the Government that if once в suspicion rained hold that inflation was regarded as romething tolerable, or at any rule its avoidance was not put a first priority, the Govern- ment would lose publie con- fidence.
