Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 July 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HC) and Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Has my hon. Friend heard any explanation from Opposition Members as to why raising VAT from 15% to 17.5% was a brilliant policy, but raising it from 17.5% to 20% is a disastrous policy? I do not quite understand the distinction they are making.
