Proceeding contribution from Ed Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 April 2009. It occurred during Budget debate on Amendment of the law.


Amendment of the law

I shall give way to the hon. Gentleman in a few minutes. He might answer on the shadow Chancellor's behalf. It is not surprising that the shadow Chancellor does not want to intervene; he does not want to admit the central difference that the country must know about—that the recession would be deeper, longer and more painful if he were in charge of the economy. That is the truth that dare not speak its name in his speech.
