Proceeding contribution from Stewart Hosie (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 June 2010. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Economic Affairs and Work and Pensions.
Economic Affairs and Work and Pensions
The shadow Chancellor rightly says that there was an international consensus, and I supported many of the actions that he took. However, in this financial year, when recovery is not secure, why did he leave the economy without a fiscal stimulus? Ours is one of only two countries in the G20 without a fiscal stimulus, and I still believe it was absolutely necessary for us in order to secure recovery and prevent our slipping back into recession.
