Proceeding contribution from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Employment Bill [Lords].


Employment Bill [Lords]

If, as the hon. Gentleman suggests, employment legislation can lead to high unemployment, why is it that when his party was in office, 3 million people were unemployed, but during our party's time in government there has been very low unemployment? What does that have to do with employment legislation?
