Proceeding contribution from Jim Cousins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 December 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Northern Rock.


Northern Rock

Is the hon. Gentleman's purpose in advocating nationalisation to enable Northern Rock to survive as a growing business—a locally based, locally headquartered company in the north-east, of which we have very few in the growing sectors—or simply to put the Government at the head of the queue of creditors to get their money out?
