Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 29 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Forecast.


Autumn Forecast

Will my noble friend not allow the noble Lord, Lord Eatwell, to get away with the idea that this year is Labour’s year? The fundamental change is that we have confidence; under them, we would not have had confidence. We would not have been able to pay our bills and we would have found ourselves in much the same position as Ireland.
