Proceeding contribution from Stephen Crabb (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.
Welsh Affairs
The Secretary of State has tried to make some reassuring remarks about the size of our deficit. Our deficit is £178 billion—it is even bigger than Greece's, yet I saw that the Prime Minister was trying to lecture the Government of Greece about fiscal responsibility. There is nothing reassuring and no reason to be complacent about the size of the UK's deficit—it is a disaster for the country.
