Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Comprehensive Spending Review.


Comprehensive Spending Review

The Secretary of State did not mention in the statement that most of the projected fall in unemployment and job losses is a result of temporary stock building and construction investment, which the Labour Government introduced with the big investment that I mentioned and which is now flowing through. For hundreds of thousands of public sector workers, the front line has become the firing line. While City bankers pocket huge bonuses, all that public sector workers can look forward to is a P45 instead of a pay packet.
