Proceeding contribution from Graham Stringer (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance (No. 3) Bill.


Finance (No. 3) Bill

Is not the irony, when comparing pay cuts in the public sector with bankers' bonuses, that in effect some bankers are public sector workers because the taxpayer has had to bail them out? Does my hon. Friend agree that where we mainly own a bank, such bonuses should not be paid while the bank is still in deficit?
