Proceeding contribution from Christopher Chope (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
I am glad that you, Madam Deputy Speaker, are joining in the sense of euphoria accompanying our nostalgic reflections. The hon. Member for Wolverhampton, South-West (Rob Marris) asked me what I would do, and I have told him what I did when I was council leader, which shows what can be done. I think that where there is a will, we need to find a way. As I used to say, necessity is the mother of invention. It is about time the Government realised the necessity of reducing expenditure.
