The paper says that this is being described as a "proxy war", one in which the chancellor is facing a push to consider taxes on the wealthy instead of cuts before she outlines her government spending plans next week They add that room for manoeuvre is further restricted by an expectation that the government will U-turn on cancelling winter fuel payments for ...
