Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Can the right hon. Gentleman explain why putting VAT up by 2.5% before the recession was scarcely over, as the Labour party did in government, was a good idea and did not destabilise the recovery, but putting it up another 2.5% to pay all the previous Government's bills, which Labour still will not tell us how it will pay for, is a bad idea?
