Proceeding contribution from John Bercow (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 October 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on World Trade (Doha Development Agenda).


World Trade (Doha Development Agenda)

This question of the consequence of failure is important. While I agree with the right hon. Member for Gordon that no deal—the collapse of the talks—would be a lose-lose scenario, does the hon. Lady accept my view that there is a huge difference between the loss to be sustained by the richest countries in the world, which is a lesser increase in wealth, and the loss to be sustained by the poorest ones, which is to be a continuation, and probably an intensification, of grinding poverty?
