Proceeding contribution from John Robertson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on Child Poverty in Scotland.

Child Poverty in Scotland

Does my hon. Friend agree that linked with poverty is the issue of education, which provides the way out of poverty? The Government have done an excellent job in that respect, as did the previous Administration in Scotland. What should we say, however, about a party that would deny young people their right to education, particularly at the pre-school under-five level?
