Proceeding contribution from Stewart Hosie (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
I am almost at a loss; the temptation is too great. It is a good thing that the hon. Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Mr. Timpson) can comfortably go to the bingo with his wife. The hon. Member for Barnsley, Central (Mr. Illsley) can also go to his local club. More Labour Members should go to their bingo clubs, which are mainly in working class communities, and see that those who go there are normal people. The Government should not be afraid of the working class, and nor should they tax them so outrageously.
