Proceeding contribution from Jim McGovern (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 October 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Banking in Scotland.

Banking in Scotland

Unfortunately, I must leave shortly, but I wonder whether my hon. Friend and other hon. Members have had the same experience as I have had. I was elected in 2005, and hold a surgery every week. Generally, the people coming to my surgeries had problems with tax, pensions, immigration, visas and so on, but in the past year or so, more and more members of the local business community have come to my surgeries complaining about how they are treated by the banks. Is that a common experience?
