Proceeding contribution from Ed Miliband (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 June 2010. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget debate.


Capital Gains Tax (Rates)

Why did the leader of the Liberal Democrats, now the Deputy Prime Minister, say on 7 April 2010 that we should remember that VAT is a regressive tax? How does the Secretary of State square that with the fact that he is seeking to claim from the Dispatch Box today that it is not a regressive tax?
