Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Was the Financial Secretary as disappointed as I was by the serried ranks of Conservative MPs who, in their contributions, hyperventilated to the extent of needing defibrillators at one proposed change to national insurance for those who earn £20,000 or more? They failed to point out that a person on an average income of £25,000 will pay 0.5 per cent. on the £5,000 over £20,000, equalling £25 a year. Instead, they suggested that it was some sort of awful impost.
