CONDUCT OF THE HONOURABLE MEMBER FOR HAMMERSMITH AND THE RT HON MEMBER FOR MONKLANDS EAST

That this House congratulates the honourable Member for Hammersmith on finally withdrawing his ludicrous and often repeated claim that a Labour Government would increase housing expenditure by ??8 billion without increasing public expenditure; notes his repeated insistence that the Leader of the Labour Party and the Shadow Chancellor agree with him; demands that the Shadow Chancellor, the Right honourable Member for Monklands East, make a statement to the House explaining how this latest example of double dealing on the economy and taxation came about, and that he makes it clear who is correct; and calls on the Labour Party to admit that their half-baked housing plans would bring the house building programme to a halt.
