Business of the House
We will be having a substantial debate on matters relating to the Budget after my right hon. Friend the Chancellor's statement. The hon. Gentleman will know that his party was unable to give any commitment that VAT would not go up and that Tony Blair advocated an increase in VAT as part of the solution to the country's difficulties.
