Proceeding contribution from Chris Williamson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on Building a High-Skilled Economy.

We can play with statistics, but in the 1980s, there seemed to be a clear policy of undermining manufacturing in this country. The car industry was destroyed and the steel industry was undermined.
