Proceeding contribution from Steve Rotheram (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

Does my right hon. Friend agree that Governments do not create apprenticeships, they fund apprenticeships? Employers create apprenticeships and under the previous Labour Government the number of apprenticeships trebled. Does he agree that it is simply laughable that the Secretary of State is trying to position himself as the champion of the working classes, and that we should invite him to Goodison Park to meet some ordinary working people, so that he can learn from them about what these policies will do to ordinary working-class families?
