Proceeding contribution from Lord Boswell of Aynho (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 December 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on Value Added Tax.

Gentleman agree that the real viciousness of extreme deflationary conditions is not so much the statistical decline in GDP, which he is right to emphasise, as the entirely disproportionate increase in unemployment that is already becoming evident and is likely to accelerate in the coming year?
