On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson speaks to Mel Stride, the Conservative chair of the Treasury select committee, about why he’s calling on the government to release the costings for its economic plan and Jon Craig, Sky News’ chief political correspondent, about the brewing civil war within the Tory ranks.
