Proceeding contribution from Jim Devine (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 October 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
On Saturday afternoon, I am holding a public meeting in my constituency for people affected by the liquidation of Farepak, which went into receivership a few weeks ago. It ran a Christmas saving scheme, so its liquidation effectively means that, for tens of thousands of hard-working families, Christmas is cancelled. I have invited the chief executive to attend—he certainly deserves this year’s ““unacceptable face of capitalism”” award. At that public meeting, is there any message of hope that I can give my constituents from the Government?
