Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 November 2006. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Treasury and Work and Pensions.


Treasury and Work and Pensions

The right hon. Gentleman may come on to the fact that a number of shadow Ministers have made spending commitments during the Queen’s Speech debate. If those commitments are not misleading the public about what a Conservative Government would do, what is the purpose of making them? Those promises were made, but the right hon. Gentleman now says that no one should take them seriously. Tell the public that.
