Proceeding contribution from Baroness Jowell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 September 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Superannuation Bill.


Superannuation Bill

That is also misguided, and we can have a further debate about it. In fact, it is public servants who make our borders safe, help unemployed people back to work, run our courts and prisons, collect our taxes, and support our armed forces both at home and abroad, in Iraq and Afghanistan. With professionalism and integrity, they make the process of government work. The representations that I suspect we have all received in our constituency surgeries seek to make that point. It is being made by the people who provide those services, many of whom are members of the PCS but feel that their motives and their importance are being misrepresented.
