Proceeding contribution from Gordon Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 July 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on G8 Summit.

G8 Summit

I hope that my hon. Friend will reconsider any plans for an early retirement. People will remember that in 1992, interest rates increased to 18 per cent., inflation was 10 per cent. and millions of people were affected by mortgage rates that caused a record number of repossessions. We have taken action precisely because we want to avoid those consequences. Unfortunately, the Opposition still support the policies of 1992.
