Proceeding contribution from Chris Ruane (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on The Budget.
The Budget
I am not giving way. It not only affects the workers, but everybody who owns a house in the area. Their house prices are going to go down. Norman Tebbit’s famous advice was, ““Get on your bike and search for work.”” How can someone get on their bike if they are tethered to a community with a £150,000 mortgage? There will be no geographical mobility if people have to keep two homes to maintain a job.
