Britain must cut more to reduce deficit - David Cameron


    LONDON (Reuters) - Britain must find more spending cuts to reduce the budget deficit, Prime Minister David Cameron said on Sunday, after a return recession this year raised speculation the government was set to miss its deficit reduction targets.

    Cameron told the BBC that the Conservative-led coalition government was determined to stick to its plan to erase what was a record budget deficit when he came to power in 2010.

    The government delivers new economic and borrowing forecasts on December 5.
