Proceeding contribution from Jon Trickett (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2009. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Responding to the Downturn and Planning the Future Economy.
Responding to the Downturn and Planning the Future Economy
My hon. Friend worked with me when I was the leader of Leeds and he was my extremely able political assistant. Is it not true that the Thatcher Government crushed both West and South Yorkshire councils and then sought to crush Leeds city council? Is not the lesson that whatever they say, in practice Tories destroy local government rather than reinforce it?
