Proceeding contribution from Alec Shelbrooke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 April 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No. 3) Bill.

Finance (No. 3) Bill

But you cannot deny that your Government doubled income tax for the lowest paid in society and destroyed pensions—not you, Mr Deputy Speaker, but the previous Government. The previous Government destroyed pensions, leaving many people whom we would class as the most vulnerable in society to take their pensions with fear and trepidation. At least we have brought in the triple lock on pensions, meaning that people should never again get the 75p rise in their pension.
