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


Comprehensive Spending Review

That is the crux of the issue. The Opposition continually state that they would have dealt with the matter by reducing the deficit by half within this Parliament, but where is the detail? You keep saying no to every single proposal that the coalition makes, and you sit in Committee unwilling to explain to the people of this country, and of Wales, how you would have dealt with the matter. Your own Chancellor, Alistair Darling, stated that if the Labour party were re-elected, its cuts would be worse than any that happened in the 1980s.
