Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 June 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Would the hon. Gentleman not admit that the real mark of an economy’s competence is the amount of foreign investment that a country gains? Under Margaret Thatcher, there was a time when we were gaining 40 per cent. of all inward investment from the European Community. That figure is now down to almost 10 per cent. Is that not a mark of the European Community’s confidence in this economy?
