Proceeding contribution from David Winnick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 November 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Employment.


Employment

In the 1980s the west midlands was devastated by unemployment. Does not today's statement demonstrate that, in contrast to what happened then, those who lose their jobs now will not be treated with indifference and contempt? If politicians do not want to lose their jobs, neither do our constituents.
