Proceeding contribution from Tony McNulty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

I will not, for the moment. If the right hon. Member for Maidenhead brings less petty politicking to these very serious matters, as she at least implies that she will, that is hugely welcome. If she brings a degree of clarity where, up to now, there has been real intellectual bankruptcy, that will be useful, too. The hon. Member for Northavon (Steve Webb), who speaks for the Liberals, would do well to look at the substance of the Bill. I think that he agrees with more of the Bill than he disagrees with, but it is not helpful if he dwells on the negative.
