Investing for stronger future - PM

Plans for massive investment in infrastructure and new jobs mean Britain will come through the recession stronger, Gordon Brown has insisted.

The Prime Minister branded the Tories' opposition to his fiscal stimulus "socially divisive", as well as "economically mistaken".

Speaking at a summit with business leaders in central London, Mr Brown said the Government would be making a series of announcements on generating thousands of "green jobs", boosting the digital industry and bringing forward investment plans.

Flanked by Chancellor Alistair Darling and Business Secretary Peter Mandelson, Mr Brown said: "The countries, I believe, that continue to invest for the future through the downturn will be the countries that emerge strongest in the future."
