Proceeding contribution from Ian Gibson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 December 2008. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Employment, Universities and Skills and Housing.


Employment, Universities and Skills and Housing

Does my hon. Friend agree that there has been a brain drain into Canary Wharf, too? Many young scientists found that the financial industry was the place to go to get the money and the lives that they wanted; but now, with the financial industry suffering somewhat, there is a reversal of that process. People are beginning to teach and to bring science into schools, so out of a recession good things can happen.
