Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanson of Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Before I let the hon. Gentleman intervene, I ask him whether he will contradict the right hon. Member for Bermondsey and Old Southwark (Simon Hughes), who said:"““I hope we don't have a VAT increase because it is the most regressive form of tax, it penalises the poor at the same rate as the rich.””" Perhaps the hon. Gentleman will agree with his right hon. Friend.
