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


Value Added Tax

My hon. Friend says that the Prime Minister has boxed himself in, and I agree with that, but he has done so in one particular way. He cannot rely on the fiscal stimulus because of the level of debt that he has created. Had he not created that level of debt, he would have been able to pursue his fiscal stimulus.
