Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on The Budget.


The Budget

That ratio indicates the depth, or the width, of the difference between what was likely under a Labour Government and what we have under a Conservative Government. We never said that we would not cut budgets; we were quite clear that budgets had to be cut, but not as far and as fast as this Conservative Government have done for Wales. It is based on an essential deceit that I seek to explode in this speech.
