Proceeding contribution from John McDonnell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 February 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security.
Social Security
There is a point of principle that the Minister and I have argued over the past 13 years at least, which is that, whatever measure is introduced, there should not be a loss. Having that quadruple lock would convince people that this is at least a way forward, because people would be protected against years such as those five out of the past 20 where CPI was higher than RPI.
