'Things are getting better but the job is not yet done.' That was the economic message of the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he delivered his Autumn Statement to MPs. Sean Curran has the best of George Osborne's speech and covers reaction to it from Ed Balls, Labour's Shadow Chancellor, and from a wide range of backbench MPs. Also on the programme: the arguments over Scottish independence are thrashed out in the Lords and MPs hear about the realities of modern-day slavery.
