Proceeding contribution from Gordon Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 March 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Spring European Council.


Spring European Council

This is the man who told us:""We see no need to continue to regulate the provision of mortgage finance"." This is the man who kept pressing us to deregulate more and more. The problem we have to face is that we have to intervene to save both the banks and the financial institutions so that people's savings are safe, and I hope the right hon. Gentleman will agree that one thing is that, despite all the difficulties we have seen, people's savings have been safe.
