Proceeding contribution from Iain Duncan Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 November 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on Living Standards.
Living Standards
It is not just the poorest who are paying. Everyone will have to bear a proportion, because everybody is going to pay for this. Yesterday the Opposition claimed that the shocks that caused inflation are not relevant, yet today they stand there and tell us that it is all down to inflation. They need to make up their minds which case they want to mount first.
