Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Fiscal Responsibility Bill.
Fiscal Responsibility Bill
I usually agree with much of what my right hon. Friend says, but I am alarmed by what he says about the level of cuts that he believes we face. He is talking only about the expenditure side, and not the income side, of the problem, but we should be looking at income and not expenditure. If we cut spending now, we will just make the problem worse.
