Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on Pre-Budget Report.
Pre-Budget Report
I am listening to the right hon. Gentleman's speech with interest. He presented the handling of the 1980s recession to us as a success. He will recall, as we all do, the fact that unemployment reached 3 million in that recession. Surely there are lessons to be learned and we should not be repeating that experience.
