Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 July 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Caring for the Elderly.


Caring for the Elderly

I think that my hon. Friend has just exposed how this dying Government are behaving. They are using elderly people and the services that they rely on as a political football, and they are doing so in a dishonest fashion. [Interruption.] Labour Members may laugh, but dishonest and untruthful allegations about another party's policies, when so many people rely on the benefits involved, is absolutely wrong.
