Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 March 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
I agree completely with my hon. Friend. The truth is that the Opposition seem to find plenty of money to give tax cuts to the wealthiest, but have never been interested in free bus travel for pensioners. Like me, the hon. Gentleman will welcome the Chancellor's announcement that he will continue with the winter fuel payment for another year. That will be very important to my hon. Friend's constituents and mine, and to pensioners throughout the country.
