Business question from Viscount Hailsham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 November 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

May I reinforce the message of the shadow Leader of the House to the effect that we should have an early and full debate on the economy? I suggest that we entitle it, ““Boom and bust: the Prime Minister's competence and credibility.”” That will enable us to ask whether, when he said that he had abolished boom and bust, he believed what he was saying, in which case he was economically illiterate, or whether he did not believe it, in which case we can ask whether his moral compass is a reliable instrument.
