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.


Building a High-Skilled Economy

Labour Members harp on about the 1980s because of what happened then. The policies of the previous Conservative Government damaged the car industry and shipbuilding, and manufacturing right across the piece in our country. It is completely wrong to blame trade unions for the systematic destruction of manufacturing in this country.
