Proceeding contribution from Albert Owen (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on Welsh Affairs.
Welsh Affairs
Like me, the hon. Gentleman is really disappointed to see those large bonuses being paid out, particularly from banks that have received taxpayers' money. However, does he not acknowledge that, had the Government not taken an interventionist role in the banking and financial institutions, there would have been great turmoil for ordinary citizens in his constituency and mine? To have sat back, done nothing and left things to the market would have been an even worse path to follow.
