Proceeding contribution from Robert Smith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill.
Postal Services Bill
The right hon. Gentleman talks about Royal Mail being owned in the national interest and about profits in the private sector, but was not the great burden hanging over it when it was owned in the national interest that its profits were taken by the Treasury for other purposes, rather than being invested in modernising it to let it compete effectively in the market that his Government forced on it?
