Steve Richards of The Independent looks behind the scenes at Westminster. This week's autumn statement has drawn the battle lines on the economy for the approaching general election. Will it be the economy that determines the outcome as in past elections? And how do George Osborne and Ed Balls link their economic judgments to their politics? What tactics will Liberal Democrats and Conservatives employ as they campaign in marginal seats? And as Gordon Brown retires from politics, two former colleagues remember him. The editor is Marie Jessel.
